There are several ways to renew your subscription

Renew your Membership Online

It is quick and easy to renew your membership online using a credit or debit card and our secure payment service. This uses an external payment processor (Stripe) and your card information is at no time passed to or held by MLFHS. To renew:

  • If you joined MLFHS via the Manchester Ancestors web site or were already registered to access the member area of our old web site then you should be able to log in with your existing membership number (or email address) and password.

Immediately after you log in, you will find your Membership Renewal date top left of the welcome page. If your renewal is due within the next three months, you will also see a Renew Subscription button as shown here. Click this to access our secure payment system.

  • If you joined before 1 September 2020 but were not registered to access the member area, then click the button above and then click 'Forgot Password' to set a password and if we have your email address we will send you a link to allow you to set a password.
  • If we do not have your email address (or have any problems with the above options)  then click the 'Contact MLFHS' button below, tell us your name, membership number and address and we will set you up so that you are able to log in.

Set up a Bank Standing Order (BSO)

Why not set up a Bank Standing Order? This will ensure that your membership is renewed each year and can easily be revoked if you decide to cancel your membership in the future. Click the button below for a form which you can print out and mail to us.


Send us a Cheque

We prefer members to renew online but we are very happy to receive renewal by cheque. Click the button below for a form to print and mail with your cheque.
