History

The Victoria Chapter was organized on June 30, 1984 at the Victoria College Student Union Building in Victoria during a State CHS Meeting. A Czech Genealogical seminar also took place during the day. This meeting was the third meeting of the State CHS since its organization in 1982.

The Victoria County Chapter has the distinction of being the oldest chapter in the state.

Dues are $12.50 yearly.
