WELCOME TO OUR WEBSITE
The Manatee Genealogical Society of Manatee County, Florida, founded in 1974, provides this website to access our services, resources, programs, and information about our society. Our Society holds hybrid meetings from November through May and virtual meetings from June through October. Guests may attend with an advance request sent via e-mail to info@mgsfl.org

“MGS was formed to promote individual and community awareness in genealogy, family history and allied fields of study, conduct genealogical meetings, workshops and seminars, and sponsor projects to promote and preserve genealogical knowledge. “
