Purpose
The Greene County Genealogical Society, formed in 1978, is a non-profit, educational organization. Its purpose is: (1) to foster and create an interest in genealogy, (2) to preserve genealogical and historical data of our ancestors, (3) to aid individual members in compiling family genealogies, and (4) to improve and help maintain, through contribution of members and the Society, the genealogical reference sections of the public libraries in Greene County.

Membership
Yearly individual $7.50.
Yearly family $10.00.
We now have lifetime memberships if desired. $75 for single, $100 for family.
Please include name, address, phone number and list of surnames you are researching.
Members are asked to submit a 4 or 5 generation ancestor chart for our research files.

Meetings
January-November, 10 a.m., 1st Saturday, Jefferson Public Library - December potluck to be announced.

Research Policy
We offer one hour of free research to new members from materials held by the Society. There is a charge of $10 per hour for minimal research to others. More extensive research will be done by volunteers from our society, with charges at the discretion of the volunteer. Upon request, we will send names and addresses of those who will research for a fee. Don't forget to send a SASE (Self-Addressed Stamped Envelope).
