Our 2024 Genealogy Club schedule is confirmed! We will continue to meet twice a month. This year, our programs will be a mixture of virtual and in-person events. The theme of this year’s schedule is Write It Down, where you will learn how and be inspired to write about the people in your family tree. We can’t wait for you to enjoy our upcoming programs!
Discover your family history with our treasure trove of Genealogy eResources. Access popular subscription-based resources that are perfect for anyone looking to explore local history or uncover family secrets. We’ve also included some popular free resources at the bottom of the page.
Our Local History Room offers a non-circulating collection of genealogical and area-specific books, maps, microfilm and more. This space is available on a walk-in basis or by reservation for the sole purpose of conducting research related to local history and genealogy.
Browse our collection of recorded webinars and handouts from previous genealogy events. You can also check out our YouTube channel for recordings of our Genealogy Club meetings. Those are typically published to YouTube the day after a meeting and stay up for 30 days.
