About the Society
The Palm Beach County Genealogical Society, Inc.,
an all volunteer nonprofit educational organization, has served the
genealogical research needs of the area since 1971. We are committed
to collecting, preserving and disseminating genealogical and related
information. The Society operates a non-circulating library open free
to the public six days a week, and offers instruction in genealogical
research. For some people, learning about
their family history is like solving a good detective mystery, one
clue at a time. Whether you are seeking clues to your family history,
proving ancestry for membership in a patriotic or hereditary society,
working on an essay for high school or college, searching for a coat
of arms, or are just interested in the history of a particular locality,
we're here to help.So if you want to find
your family history or are seeking tips on how best to preserve it,
we're the place to visit!
Our knowledgeable and genial volunteers are here
to help you with your research. They will make copies for you, show
you how to operate viewers and computer equipment and help you find
the best starting points for your research. Limited searches are done
in response to requests for genealogical information. Send SASE or
e-mail us at ancestry@bellsouth.net for a research questionnaire and
fee schedule.
Our regular programs are open and
free to the public. Classes and workshops are offered. See our calendar
for dates and topics.
The Society, a 501(c)3 educational
organization, is supported by dues, gifts and donations. Donations
are tax deductible within the limits of the law, and are promptly
acknowledged.
Generous contributions in the past
have helped make the Society's library one of the finest genealogical
libraries in South Florida.
