SUMMARY:Berkshire Heritage Fair
DESCRIPTION:Why not join us at the 2024 Berkshire Heritage Fair.\nIt’s online and free to attend. If you have an interest in historic Berkshire or some particular location within it, or one of its surrounding counties, you will almost certainly find this beneficial.\nYou will be able to:\n\nConnect with local experts about locations, businesses, transport links, military units or families of interest.\nAsk questions and seek their advice.\nFind out about the archives which many of these organisations hold (majority not online) and how you can access them.\nBenefit from general and specific information, sources and images – many of which you may have previously been unaware.\nShare information on your own family or heritage research with the participating organisations.\nGain advice and guidance on Berkshire-specific resources and sources and those from our surrounding counties.\nGet help with your own family, local, military, transport or business history research – from getting started to breaking down brick walls.\nPop into our specialist rooms on topics such as local businesses and industries (including Huntley & Palmers, Sutton Seeds, and the Katesgrove Iron Works), Transport, Military, Wills & Probate and Parish Registers.\nBuild lasting connections with new contacts beyond this event\nFind out how you can join and get involved with these organisations.\n\nMany of the Family History societies from our adjoining counties are also joining us for the day and will be able to answer questions on their counties.\nAbout the sessions:\nThere are two sessions 10am – 12 noon and 2 – 3pm. \nYou can drop in anytime you like during these sessions and attend both if you wish. \nSession timings are pitched to allow as many people as possible from across the world to join in. Last time, participants joined us from the US, Canada and Australia – can we add even more countries this time? The event uses Zoom breakout rooms, and each participating heritage organisation will have their own room. You will be able to share documents and images on your screen with our experts and vice versa. \nThe list of participating organisations and individuals is growing and you can see the latest position here ( https://berksfhs.org/berkshire-heritage-online-fair-2026/ ).\nImage: The Broadway, Speenhamland, with the Russian gun and the Chequers Hotel, in the late 1800s, colourised, courtesy of Jim Bradshaw.\nTo book, scroll down. After booking your place, you will be required to register before you can join the Zoom session. This takes less than a minute and can be done in advance or on the day. \n
