Welcome to our website

  The society is for all those who want to trace their ancestors. Members include people who live on the Isle of Wight but whose families came from elsewhere as well as those with island ancestry who may live on the mainland or abroad.

Whether you are a longstanding member of the Society or just browsing we hope that you will find something to interest you on our pages.


All February journals have now been dispatched to members with a paid-up 2010 subscription; if you don’t receive a journal within the next few days, and are expecting one, please contact the Membership Secretary, Jon Matthews. Distributed with the journal are 2010 Membership Cards advising the password, effective 14th February, for those areas of the web-site that are password protected (members who were personally handed Membership Cards at the meeting on Monday 1st February will be forwarded theirs in due course).
