We will acknowledge Rotarians who assist us with these histories. RGHF Senior Historian and history co-chair, Basil Lewis is responsible for commissioning new work and searching out and obtaining these missing histories.  You may contact Basil through our comment page.

A few of the clubs listed on this page do not continue to meet, but their histories are still of interest. The "First 100 Clubs" have all continued. But many of the early counties do not even exist. Many clubs were closed due to world or regional conflicts.
