The Saint Augustine Genealogical Society was founded in 1999. Our meetings are on the second Saturday of the month at 1 p.m. and unless otherwise noted are held at the South East branch of the St. Johns County Library. We encourage anybody interested in genealogy to attend. All events are open to the public and your participation is encouraged. Winter visitors to the Oldest City are welcome to participate.
Visit our growing Genealogy Library located at the Southeast Branch of the St. Johns County Public Library. A listing of our genealogy books is under 'Local Research' tab above, along with the library address and hours.
Be sure to check the links above. Under 'Cemeteries', most of the St. Johns County cemeteries have been transcribed and put online, along with others in the surrounding area. Under the 'Records' tab, there are links to St. Johns County records where there are transcriptions of many church records. In addition there are court, vital and other miscellaneous records.
Under 'Our Society' there are links for joining our society, trips we will be taking and other information about us. Information in this section includes announcements, information talked about at our meetings, new sites or information our members have submitted and updates to our site. In addition, members have submitted pedigree sheets which can be viewed online. You may find a local cousin!!
