MEMBERS' FAMILY HISTORIES

The following Websites have been sent to me for inclusion on this page. They are Websites created by members of the IOW Family History Society of families that have been researched by them. Many of them also have a considerable amount of information about the Isle of Wight. The information on any of these sites cannot be guaranteed by the Society and anyone using them is urged to use them as a guide to research only. If you know of any other sites that would be useful for Isle of Wight research please feel free to send them to the Webmaster, Geoff Allan. E-mail contact : Click for email address

Please note that these are placed in alphabetical order and new sites are often added
