The Queensland Family History Society was launched on 6 June 1979, by a group of family history researchers who met at Holy Trinity Church Hall, Woolloongabba.

This group appreciated the importance of educating members in family history research techniques. They realised that a comprehensive family history requires an understanding of the period being researched: the social, political, military, economic, religious, medical, migratory, and geographical circumstances of the time.

QFHS maintains a comprehensive library of reference material not only for Queensland but also for the other Australian States and several overseas countries, including birth, death and marriage records, census records, convict records and court records.

Open Monday 7 pm-9 pm, Tuesday to Thursday 10 am-3 pm, Saturday and Sunday 1 pm-4 pm. Closed Fridays, all public holidays except Exhibition Wednesday in August, and for one month over the Christmas/New Year holiday period.

Access available to members and members of societies with reciprical arrangements. Others will be charged a visitors fee.
