Lineage Societies

Judy Belford, StLGS librarian

Joining a lineage society is an excellent way to honor family heritage, preserve genealogical research on your ancestors, and sometimes an interesting way to meet cousins! The process of documenting your lineage and completing a lineage society application can be challenging. We will share examples of acceptable documents that can be used as proof and provide resources for finding them.

		If you want to attend in-person, click the red button to sign-up.  Or contact the office as described at the top of this page. Click the blue button below to go to the Zoom online registration page for StLGS members.

German Genealogy Begins in the U.S.

Carol Whitton, StLGS projects director

Ultimately we seek a German village of origin in  U.S. records. But first—We connect ourselves to an ancestor. Recognize and avoid online pitfalls. Use a different thought process for each ancestor. Answer U.S. questions. Build the whole U.S. family. Learn about Germany. Verify the German village with two U.S. records. Then, we begin research in Germany with parish records.
