At present Girvan does not have a local genealogy society. Anyone with any queries about their ancestors is more than welcome to use our geneaology forum in the hope that someone can help. We currently have some voluntary expertise on board from David Webster of rossgeneaology.co.uk who will help out enquirers when he can.
