Reigate and Redhill Local and Family History Group

Reigate and Redhill Local and Family History Group (previously known as Reigate and District Family History Group) has relocated meetings to the Green Room at:

The Woodhatch Centre
Whitebeam Drive
Reigate
RH2 7LS

Our aim is to bring together people of all ages and from all walks of life who are interested in tracing their family trees. Our members have a vast knowledge and can help you with your enquiries.

Our meetings are held six times a year on alternate months: January (on Zoom), March, May (AGM), July, September and November.

You may pay an entry fee at the door, currently £4 or take a subscription for six meetings for a reduced rate. Doors open 7.30pm for refreshments followed by the talk at 8pm. Most meetings feature a talk on some aspect of genealogy and offer the chance to meet people with similar interests.

Public sessions

The Group's volunteers offer advice and guidance to the public for family trees and local history to support the Redhill Centre for Local and Family History.

Please contact Jackie Johnson by emailing johnsonjackie@hotmail.com for further information.

  • First and third Saturdays of the month from 2pm until 4pm. Please note these are no sessions in August.
