Unfortunately the link for the South Westmorland Family History Society is now broken. Is there a new web page?

Thanks,
pughcd

Hi Pugh,

Their website ceased in about 2014, I could only find a link to their archived copy. I am sorry I could not find any replacement.

Regards

Sarah

Hi Pugh and Sarah :)

Parts of my husband's family came from Westmorland and Cumberland, far away from my southern roots.  I've had a great deal of help from the Cumbria Family History Society, which covers the two 'old' counties and a bit more.

Here's a link to their homepage - scroll down for a useful map of their area:
