Collection Description[edit | edit source]The Georgia Genealogical Society can offer genealogical research advice. Their publication, the Georgia Genealogical Society Quarterly, has compiled information about Georgia families, but only the first 20 years have a comprehensive index. They do not conduct research. They have no permanent library collection of their own, office space, or support staff. [2] Alternate Repositories[edit | edit source]If you cannot find the record you seek through the Georgia Genealogical Society, a similar record may be available at one of the following.
