Family history

RICS Library is the ideal starting point for finding information on your family members or colleagues who were chartered surveyors, land agents, auctioneers and estates agents. We can help with tracing information on firms and individuals.

We receive enquiries from all over the world from as far away as Australia and Canada. Recently we received an enquiry from a member interested in tracing biographical information on his grandfather who was a chartered surveyor.  It revealed that there were three generations of chartered surveyors in one family ie the great grandfather, grandson and great granddaughter.

Further information is available at Family History.

In response to Tim's comment asking if a history of the RICS is planned.  A recent history of the RICS is currently in progress - no publication date available
