2025 Members' Meetings
2025 Members' Meetings
Embedded Files
Genealogy Sunshine Coast is open Monday, Tuesday and Thursday from 9.00am til 4.30pm.
Our general meetings are held on the 3rd Saturday of the month, they are free and open to members and visitors.
They are a great opportunity to meet other members and discuss your research.
We share a cuppa and chat from 9.30am and then at 10am have a brief meeting to keep everyone updated with committee decisions.
This is followed by morning tea.
Most months have a theme or show and tell topic, where individual members tell related family stories or anecdotes, in a relaxed, friendly environment - there's no pressure to participate. We also have occasional guest speakers.
You are welcome to stay afterwards to continue your research. Our centre is open until 4.30pm. Why not browse the library while you're here - you never know what you might find!
Saturday 20th September
After the meeting, Chris Dyer will explain the new file strcture on our internal server. If you have been wondering where your files and links have gone, do not worry, we have just had a good tidy up.
Show and Tell Topic: Law and Order
Apart from convicts, did your family have a law breaker or a bushranger, someone who treated the law with scant regard? Do you have some court records or newspaper articles about this person? Have you found a policeman, layer or judge in your family tree? Please tell us your story!
Saturday 18th October Show and Tell Topic: Railways
Did your ancestors help to build Australia’s railways in the early days? Were they employed in the early era of steam locomotives here or overseas? What sort of work did they do? What part did train travel play in your family's life?
Saturday 15th November Topic: Decimal Currency Do you remember the change to decimal currency? The silly jingle we used to sing? Old money boxes or bank books? (remember bank books!) School banking?
Saturday 13th December Come prepared to have fun at our Christmas Party; giant raffle, lots of good food and activities with prizes!
