Surname Society
This looks interesting and worth a look at.
A worldwide group of experienced genealogists who focus on single surname studies are considering setting up a society to meet the needs of researchers in the world of family history and genealogy as it evolves in the 21st century.
We would like your views on the viability of creating a society and whether you would be interested in joining as a founder member.
Our current thinking:
A truly worldwide society that ensures its practices meet the needs of all members
Fully collaborative studies where more than one individual can research a surname
Full membership available to individuals and surname associations
Limited studies where research of a surname is restricted to a particular area or country, as well as worldwide studies
We will have an active presence on Social Media, an up-to-date website that allows members to enter data to share with other members, a member-to-member advice forum, regular Google+ Hangouts and much more.
