New Membership with Study Registration (Dec)

Posted 15 November 2020 by

New Membership with Study Registration (Dec)

GB £32.00 – GB £48.50

For new members, the initial amount payable when joining is based on a sliding scale depending on the month joined. For joiners in December, you may choose an 11-month term to 1 November of next year or an extended 23-month term to 1 November of the following year.

To pay in another currency please make your selection in the sidebar. The membership will subsequently be due for renewal annually at an ongoing cost of £18 GBP (or equivalent in other currencies).

The study registration fee is a one-off payment. A member can, over a period of time, register up to a maximum of three different surname studies. A member may register for additional one-name studies once they are a member of the Guild.

All study registration requests are carefully scrutinised by the Study Registrar who may accept the registration of the proposed study surname and variants, or ask the member to consider altering the request in some way, or, rarely, refuse to accept the application for some stated reason. In these matters the Study Registrar’s decision is final. If a surname registration were to be declined after the registration fee has been paid, the fee would be returned.

All Guild members must adhere to the Guild’s Membership Conditions.

Guild of One-Name Studies Study Principles

When you register a surname you accept the following principles in relation to your one-name study:

  • that it is global in scope
  • that it includes research in countries where the name is relatively significant and where sources of genealogical data are readily available
  • that it will research and store data available in core genealogical datasets and transcriptions
  • that it stores and may research other data where the surname is mentioned
  • that you will maintain an accurate description of the scope and progress of the study using the Study Codes visible on your self-service registration page on the Guild website.
  • that you will deal with all email and reply-paid letter enquiries concerning this study in a timely fashion.
