The North West Kent Family History Society was formed in 1978 to aid and encourage the study of family history and genealogy in North West Kent and the ancient Kent parishes now SE London.
This year we are celebrating our 40th year of Family Research
Our members interests cover the UK and overseas as well as surnames and occupations.

The library/research centre is open every Wednesday 10.00 to 16.00 hrs at KCC Library, 80 Summerhouse Drive, Joydens Wood Estate, Bexley, Kent, DA5 2EE (see map below) where help is available and workshops are held covering a variety of research topics.

Non-members are always welcome.

The Society publishes a range of databases on CDs including transcripts and images of Kentish parish & cemetery registers, and a parish gazetteer suggesting sources for your research.
