Are you interested in history and genealogy? We would like to invite you to join the Autauga Genealogical Society (AGS). Although our primary focus are the old Autauga counties of Autauga, Elmore, or Chilton; you don't even have to have roots in Alabama to benefit.
Our objective is to promote, collect and preserve the genealogy and history of Autauga County. We have an extensive collection of information housed in the Alabama Room of the Autauga-Prattville Public Library and are working with the library to purchase more books. Much of this data is also available on-line. We encourage you to send us your family charts and data so that they can be shared with your fellow researchers.
With the exception of December, meetings are held on the third Sunday of each month at 2 PM at the First Baptist Church downtown with programs on local and Southern history, genealogy, and culture as well as other topics of interest to genealogists and historians. Visitors are always welcome.
AGS membership costs $20 per household and includes:
-
Quarterly "Autauga Ancestry" magazine, approx. 40 pages
-
Free queries in the "Ancestry" (non-members $3.00)
-
Yearly membership edition with surnames registry
-
Monthly programs of genealogical interest
-
Periodic fieldtrips and workshops
Hope to see you at our next meeting!
"In
all
of us
there
is a
hunger,
marrow
deep,
to
know
our
heritage--
to
know
who
we
are
and
where
we
came
from.
Without
this
enriching
knowledge,
there
is a
hollow
yearning.
No
matter
what
our
attainments
in
life,
there
is
still
a
vacuum,
an
emptiness,
and
the
most
disquieting
loneliness"
