The Thoresby Society is named after Ralph Thoresby
(1658-1725), the first historian of the town.
Since its foundation in 1889 the Society has published books
about Leeds, including the transcripts of the parish registers.
We have a varied programme of lectures and excursions throughout
the year.
New members are always welcome.
Please note that, as the society is manned by volunteers, it
is not possible to undertake research.

OF LEEDS 1207-2007: 800 years of Development and Change.
