The Suffolk Records Society is a local text publication society founded in 1957 to promote the study and preservation of Suffolk records from the Middle Ages to the present day.[3] The society has published over 80 volumes as of 2015, divided into two book series,[4] the Charters series for charters of Suffolk,[5] and the General series.[6]

Origins

In the mid 1950's several heritage professionals discussed reviving the Victoria County History for Suffolk.[7]
