The Boulder Genealogical Society was organized in January, 1968. Objectives of the Society are to collect, preserve and disseminate knowledge and information with reference to genealogical and related historical, biographical and heraldic data; in those fields to inculcate and promote interest in research; to stimulate and provide instruction in the use of efficient mechanics and the adherence to scientific principles of accuracy and thoroughness in research; to champion advanced ethical standards and to discourage and oppose incompetent and disreputable practices or researchers; to foster careful documentation and otherwise promote scholarly writing. Read our Bylaws and Standing Rules.

Our Society was established to promote an interest in genealogy and history through:

1. Informative programs on genealogy and related subjects.
2. Depositing material in, and otherwise aiding the Boulder Public Library, Carnegie Branch.
3. The collecting and publishing of genealogical data.
4. Careful documentation of names, dates and places compiled in our personal genealogies.

Our Society Offers:

1. A genealogical library open to the public.
2. A surname file.
3. Featured speakers.
4. Workshops and classes.
5. Forms you will need.
6. An informative Web site on Boulder County, Colorado and related topics.
7. The BGS Quarterly, a magazine with free queries and the BGS newsletter.
8. Fellowship, interest and assistance.
