Our History

Purpose
The Sacramento German Genealogy Society, a non-profit organization, was founded in 1983 to promote the search for family histories of members who have a German heritage, to increase the understanding of the cultural diversity of life in the German-speaking areas of Europe and in the United States, to encourage and provide the means for members to share their genealogical findings through meetings and a quarterly journal, and to promote the collection and preservation of family history materials

Membership
Over 900 members from almost every state in the USA, as well as from Canada, Australia, England and Germany.

Benefits
SGGS membership privileges include regular meeting lectures and programs, study groups; the quarterly journal, Der Blumenbaum, with free queries; access to German language classes; surname/locality files and pedigree charts; and reduced fees for some special events. Occasionally a workshop is scheduled after the regular meeting. There may be a small fee, typically from $3-5.
