2023 Project CADFHS Area of Schools
The aim of this project is to produce a comprehensive list of schools in the area which the Society covers, namely the Scarsdale Hundred.
This will be a valuable resource for Members who would like to find out where their ancestors may have been educated, and for those Members who contribute to the articles about the schools, an opportunity to practice and advance their research skills.
Finished articles will be uploaded to the Members’ Only Area of the CADFHS website, and depending on the response, we may also consider producing booklets or a book.
