Welcome to Western Victorian Association of Historical Societies (WVAHS) Online!

The Western Victorian Association of Historical Societies Inc. has a membership of approximately 50 groups from Swan Hill (in the north of the State) to Warrnambool on the southern coast.

The member groups have a wide range of interests – all with a historical emphasis. These include:

● Collecting artefacts to house in Museums

● Collecting paper records

● Collecting photographs

● Some are combined Historical and Genealogical Groups

Most of the groups are willing to allow the public to carry out research or will do so for them at a fee.

The Association allows interchange of ideas and information between groups, relating to such things as:

● Fund Raising

● Storage Methods

● Attracting members

● Insurance Issues

● Grants Available

● Charges made

● Guest speakers

● Burglary prevention

A quarterly newsletter (The Western Historian) is also available.
