Suffolk Roots is the quarterly Journal published by The Suffolk Family History Society. The first edition was published in January 1975.

Suffolk Roots is published in March, June, September and December each year and is free to members.

The Journal is packed with news, articles, letters, important little snippets of information and much more, many written by members from all over the world!

A recent article, pictured below, featured "The amazing church of St Mary the Virgin, Bramford, which has everything you would expect to find in an East Anglian Church and rather more"!

The Editor of Roots always welcomes articles to print in the Journal. These can be submitted by any member and should be of interest to local or family historians. Please quote your membership number.

If part of your article includes quotations/lists from a book then the permission of the author must be sought unless it is beyond the copyright date.
