CHANGE TO ORDERING MICROFILMS AND MICROFICHE SETS FROM FAMILY SEARCH
As of January 1st, 2010 all microfilms and mircrofiche sets are to be order online via Family Search website.
This can be done at home or at the Society rooms but payment must be made with the member's own Mastercard/Visa Debit/Credit card.
The films will be sent to the Society's rooms for viewing and will be returned by the Society. Further updates will follow.
Cairns & District Family History Society were successful in obtaining a grant from the Reef Hotel Community Benefit Fund to purchase 3 computers, a multi function centre, office chair and mat. These have been installed and will provide further internet connection for members.
Change to Saturday opening hours
The Society's rooms will now open only on the 2nd Saturday of each month from 10am to 3pm.
Have Your Own Personalised Family History Web Page!
Have you considered creating your own web page about your family history? Our web designer Tim Koch can assist members in developing a
web page attached to the Cairns & District Family History Society's Web site. A link to your page will be placed on the Member's Interests
page.
When your web page gets published your information is found on the internet by other researchers. These people can then
help you to further your research.
For instance, go to Google and search for "William Jones Sarah Newman". The CDFHS website
comes up number one on the results list! This could be you and your research too!
