History Queensland Inc., formerly known as the Queensland Association of Local and Family History Societies Inc. (QALFHS) was established on 15 July 1995. The aim of HQ is to act as an umbrella group that gives all such societies a united voice in promoting the interests of family historians, local historians and genealogists.

Local and Family History Societies operate throughout Queensland because of the dedication of thousands of members who give their services voluntarily to promote their common interest.

UPDATING OF INFORMATION
To help us help you, and to ensure that we are getting information to the correct person, could you please keep us up to date regarding changes to your Management Committees especially as most groups are having their AGM after the Membership Renewals are posted.  If you have given us an email address, or contact address, for your group is it still correct?  In some cases a contact phone number would also be of great assistance to us.  No telephone numbers will be published unless we have permission to do so.  Please forward any changes to the Secretary via mail or email.
