About Us

On June 14th, 1980 the Quinte Branch was chartered as the 18th branch of the Ontario Genealogical Society (OGS) covering the Bay of Quinte area that includes Hastings, Prince Edward and southeastern Northumberland Counties in Ontario, Canada. The branch celebrated it’s 25th Anniversary on September 24, 2005. Members include those who live in the Bay of Quinte area whose families came from elsewhere as well as those with Quinte ancestry who live elsewhere or abroad.

Quinte OGS is a non-profit organization with three major goals:
- to encourage participation in genealogical activities
- to assemble and preserve the family histories and research material;
- to assist family history researchers at the branch library and by correspondence.
