Who We Are:

The society was founded in 1987 as a non-profit corporation to promote interest in the related fields of genealogy, history and heraldry by individual and group effort. All our meetings and programs are open to the public. We encourage membership in our society to gain additional access to the wealth of knowledge and experience found here.


We have multiple opportunities for people to learn more about genealogy and how to research their own family histories. We have a Research Group where we share ideas about how to find those ancestors who just don't want to be found.  We have a DNA Interest Group that delves into the data and resources of genetics and how it applies to genealogy. Our education chair meets every third Tuesday monthly at the Bonita/Sunnyside Library to do a deep dive into genealogical topics of interest. 


  • All meetings are now via Zoom Tele-Conference.
  • General Society meetings are held on the last Wednesday of the month.
  • Board meetings are held on the first Wednesday of the month at 12 noon.
  • The Research Group meets on the 2nd Wednesday of the month at 12 noon.
  • The DNA Interest Group meets on the 3rd Wednesday of the month at 12 noon.
