GENFILE

Record Offices, Libraries and especially The National Archives at Kew and the Family Record Centre at Myddelton Street, Islington, London, are becoming more and more crowded and, as a consequence, there is very little room for you to layout and use larger files or notebooks.

GENFILE has been specifically designed to overcome this problem: it uses similar forms to the well-known A4 Record Forms produced by the Federation of Family History Societies but in a compact 6¾” x 3¾” size punched with 6 holes to fit standard 6 ring binders. If you already use a Filofax or similar personal organiser, you will find the forms are fully compatible.

Each form is pre-printed with the vital heading and ruled appropriately for each class of record to save writing them out each time and has a filing ‘box’ for you to insert your reference number. They can be transferred to larger binders at home or used as filing slips.

Now available; GREEN 6 ring binder, embossed with Genfile on the front cover. Also available, binder and starter pack (5 of each of GR series (does not include GR.22; GR.23 & GR.24) plus 2 x GR.25; 2 x GR.26; 1 x GM.2; 1 x GM.3 and 1 x GM 6).

NEW - Plain white dividers come in sets of 5.

NEW - Set of 5 plastic folders to fit the Genfile folder or similar (3 plain with top opening, and 2 with three pockets for membership/credit cards.
