go local.

Besides using online websites, don't overlook your own local genealogical resources.  We are fortunate to have the libraries of the Augusta Genealogical Society, the Georgia Heritage and Genealogy Room, and the Old Edgefield District Genealogical Society located in the CSRA.   Even if you don't have family in this region, they probably have resources and records and knowledgeable staff that could help you connect your generations.

The Georgia Heritage Room is a resource center for historical and genealogical study, located in the Augusta-Richmond County Public Library. The repository houses an extensive collection of local, county, and Georgia history resources, as well as genealogy materials, including microfilm. It also subscribes to a variety of online databases. The Heritage Room places special emphasis on the rich history of the Central Savannah River Area (CSRA) , therefore limiting their collection to a very specific geographical area. https://arcpls.org/georgia-heritage-room/about-the-georgia-heritage-room/#

WHAT IS FAMILY HISTORY?

6/5/2020
Family History is anything and everything about your family's story in the history of humanity.  If you are beginning to compile or find your family's history, you will quickly learn that every detail, every face and every name is a link into the past and into the future.  The consultants at the Evans Georgia Family History center are eager to help you along your genealogy journey.  Although we are currently closed due to COVID-19, we can help you get started in creating your family tree or doing further research by communicating via technology.  We look forward to helping you!
