MEETINGS/EDUCATION SERIES

Four meetings are held each year, three of which are all-day seminars conducted by regional or national known speakers. These seminars focus on genealogical methodology, not necessarily specific to Georgia. Members receive a discounted admission rate.

WEBINARS

Free one-hour webinars are presented 6 times per year on genealogical topics and are open to members and non-members. However, members have access to previously recorded webinars on the Members Area section of the website.

GGS QUARTERLY

Members receive the Georgia Genealogical Society Quarterly that includes transcriptions of Georgia records, information on using technology in research, book reviews and a Questions and Answers section. Past issues are archived on the Members Area section of the website.

GGS NEWSLETTER

Members receive The Scribe quarterly. It contains news of the society and information relevant to genealogists in the Society.

PERIODIC EMAIL UPDATES

These updates include reminders of webinars, seminars, and other events in the GGS community. These are sent to members and non-members who have given us permission to send updates.

MEMBERS AREA WEBSITE SECTION

Other than items mentioned previously, members also have access to special pages of historic and genealogical research value, such as ‘Index to Georgia’s Federal Naturalization Records to 1950 (Excluding Military Pensions)’ and ‘Census of the City of Augusta, 1852.’

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

There are many GGS volunteer opportunities available to share your talents, skills, and expertise. From active involvement to just a few hours per year, your help will be greatly appreciated. To volunteer, please send an email to volunteer@gagensociety.org to learn about our opportunities.
