Alberta Genealogical Society

Branches

The Alberta Genealogical Society has 11 branches which are ideal sources of information concerning the resources available in the area, including the most recent and useful guides to local repositories and new publications. Membership in the parent society is a requirement for membership in a branch.

Each branch holds regular meetings and may also maintain a local genealogy library. Branches have their own projects which encourage and promote the study of genealogy and genealogical research in their area.

Most branches also issue regular newsletters providing useful information, generally of a more localized nature, for example, changes in a local repository's hours or fees.
