  • New Addition to the Members Only Area

    The index to the Society Journal contains entries for surnames, places and subjects. It now contains entries from the start of the Society in 1990 up to 2017 (previously it was from 2000 - 2015) and work has now commenced on filling the gap by adding entries between then and the more recent editions of the Journal. To paraphrase from the compiler of the original index - "Those of us who have been members for a long time often think “That was in the magazine - but when?”. There are many articles and transcriptions which our newer members are not aware of, but which they will find helpful.  I hope the index will solve those problems in at least most cases. " 

    The index is made available as a member benefit. You will need to have registered for a MOA account and be logged in to view any items in the MOA.

    The updated index may be found in the "Journals" section of the MOA.
