The Wingfield Family Society (“WFS” or the “Society”) was founded in the Commonwealth of Virginia of the United States of America (USA) on 24 July 1987. WFS is a 501 (c)(7) – Social and Recreational Organization that is exempt from Federal income taxes under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) 501(a).
While there are many regional Wingfield reunions held periodically throughout North America and in England, this is the first society formed to encompass all Wingfield families into a single worldwide genealogical organization. In addition to those living in the USA, Canada, and United Kingdom, there are also members in Australia, Costa Rica, Germany, Ireland, New Zealand, and South Africa.
