QFHS aims to bring together people who are interested in the study of genealogy, heraldry, and family and local history, and to assist and encourage members in their research. We also aim to encourage the preservation of historical records, to acquire and maintain a reference and research library, and to collect and preserve material relating to the families of the people of Queensland.

Most of our speakers donate their time for the larger education benefit of our members. We are particularly grateful for the donation of time and effort from our own members. Their knowledge & expertise are valuable gifts to the Society and our members, and we thank them, one and all.
