Our society was established in November
2000, as the partner organization of AKdFF (Arbeitskreis donauschwabischer
Familienforscher) in Sindelfingen.
The AKuFF above all is an organization of German family tree researchers in
Hungary, but it doesn't preclude the possibility of researching Hungarian or
other nationalities.
The main purpose of the society is to organize the researchers in this
organization, promote the exchange of information by getting to know each
other's research work, provide scientific background for the members and
giving professional assistance necessary for research. In addition the
Swabian history, local history, historical auxiliary sciences (heraldry,
archontology, cartography, etc.) are also in our range of intersts.
Usually we hold a three day meeting yearly in different parts of the country
in locations where are members live. There apart from the official task we
hear 1-2 professional presentation and if available we see the local sights
(tombstones of the age of settling, local history collection, etc.).
You can read about our society in the newspaper Neue Zeitung (2001.16.vol.)
and in the 2002. yearly Deutscher Kalendar.
