易氏家族联谊会创立于一九六四年，至今已有五十周年，发启人多数是福建安溪人， 三四十年代，先辈陆续从中国移居新加坡，马来亚，印尼等地找生活，当时还是英殖民地时代。人生地不熟，出门在外，宗亲间就互相照顾。当时，交通并不发达，宗亲间难得有机会见面，有感于此，先辈觉得有必要把宗亲组织起来， 以便互通讯息，互相关怀，共享悲欢。但福建易姓在新加坡并不多，而广东易姓也有不少，念及大家都是同宗，于是就联合组成了易氏家族联谊会，于一九六四年三月正式成立。 为新加坡易氏家族联谊会。会员包括了广东，福建省的籍贯人。会址就租一间小单位，于武吉知马七英里美世界旁。不幸的事，七十年代一场大火烧掉了美世界，公会也受波及一切资料照片都毁于一旦。
时代的变迁，信息传播很快，有年青的宗亲觉得有必要设立网站面簿，以加强宗亲间的联系，也欢迎年青的一代踊跃加人联谊会。公会每年农历新年都主办新春联欢会，与大家共聚一堂，同庆新春。
