Albuquerque Genealogical Society

The object of the Albuquerque Genealogical Society (AGS) ,a non-profit organization founded in 1972, is to: promote genealogy; provide educational aid for genealogical researchers; and support the genealogical collection and services of the Albuquerque and Bernalillo County Public Library. The Society offers informative monthly meetings, frequent w... orkshops, and classes for beginning genealogical researchers. The Genealogy Center on the 2nd floor of the Albuquerque Main Library at 501 Copper NW is the meeting place for the AGS-sponsored Special Interest Groups and Research Days with consultants experienced in various areas of research. All are free and open to the public. The latest information can be found in "Upcoming Events" and "Special Interest Groups." The Quarterly is a quality publication that we are proud of, published February, May, August, and November. Members are also encouraged to share brief items of interest or websites they find in their research in the "I discovered. . ." series. An important component in the Quarterly is the "Early Albuquerque Series" about families that settled here at the turn of the century and before, what the times were like in the "olden days" and descriptions of the town when it was small. The Quarterly features articles and tips on research, columns on using computers and DNA in genealogy research as well as a listing of all upcoming events. We hope this website will get you started in doing your family history research online. If you're not a member, join our Society and receive our Quarterly newsletter either electronically or by mail. Everyone is welcome at our monthly meetings (seeUpcoming Events).

AGS sponsors an annual series of classes on ...Read More
