Dorset local history groups
LOCAL HISTORY ENQUIRIES
If you ask a local history group for information at no cost to yourself, bear in mind the members respond because they like to help. Thanking them for their effort is a nice gesture, a stamped addressed envelope for snail mail replies is always appreciated. Some groups make a small charge; this may recompense the researcher for their efforts on your behalf, or it may be used to help the group provide a better service for its members. Rarely does the enquirer not get excellent value for their money.
