The Society

The Hambrook Family History Society was started by Mr. Ken Aitken in 1979. He was the first editor of the Hambrook Herald, a newsletter he created to share stories about his ancestors and to connect with other interested family history researchers.

Every book is a quotation; and every house is a quotation out of all forests, and mines, and stone quarries;
and every man is a quotation from all his ancestors.
– Ralph Waldo Emerson

Some family trees have beautiful leaves, and some have just a bunch of nuts.
Remember, it is the nuts that make the tree worth shaking.
