Local History Records - Volume 70

 

All Bourne Society Members now receive a free copy of the Society's quarterly production known as the "Local History Records". This journal is packed with short articles of interest to the local historian as well as items of news, forthcoming events, recent group activities, contact details etc.

This booklet, which typically runs to 70-80 pages, has a long and illustrious history. From 1956 to 2006 the Bourne Society published a Newsletter, "The Bourne Society Bulletin", which at first appeared irregularly and then settled down to a quarterly publication, amassing 202 issues.

The Society also produced an annual "Local History Records", which first appeared in 1962. Volume 45, for 2006 and published in November 2005, was a special Jubilee Edition, celebrating the Society's 50th anniversary.

In late 2005 the Society's Council decided that the two publications should be merged into a new quarterly "Local History Records", incorporating the Bourne Society Bulletin. The numbering sequence of "Local History Records" was retained, the first quarterly volume of the new combined publication – No.46 – appearing in February 2006. The ISSN of all Local History Record volumes is 0520-6790.
