Who We Are

The Genealogical Society of Greater Miami is a non-profit organization incorporated in November, 1974. The object of the society is to stimulate and to encourage its members and others to collect and to distribute genealogical and historical information. Membership in the society is open to individuals, institutions, libraries and societies. The members range from beginners to professionals, including several members who have published extensive genealogical works and many who have had articles published in both regional and national publications. The particular interests and expertise of our members range from areas throughout the United States to foreign countries.

The address is 4200 SW 89 Avenue, Miami, FL. Look for the open gate just north of the main entrance. Programs are on genealogical and related topics.

February 10, 2008: Bring your "Love Letters" from the attic or trunk or wherever you found them. Last year's letters were such a treat, everyone wants to do it again. Remember that it really doesn't have to be a "love" letter--any old letters that may have helped in your genealogy search will fit the bill. Refreshments = Ann Doole.

March 9, 2008: "Medals, Medallions & Mystery Objects" or "Investigating the Bottom of the Trunk" Most of us have mystery objects that somehow relate to someone in the family BUT we don't know what they are or how they fit. Bring a sample to share. We'll use the internet to attempt to identify a couple and look at some that have already been identified and how. Refreshments = Snacks--, Drinks--

April 13, 2008: Lynn Maynard will discuss her British Isles research techniques, sources, and successes--or not. Refreshments = Snacks--, Drinks--
