Welcome to Our Website!
GGS offers information, educational opportunities, publications, and association with others researching German roots. This includes areas that are outside of the current borders of Germany.
However, GGS does not have records for your specific German ancestors. Our extensive library does include various indexes with individual's names, as well as how-to books and background information on places where your German ancestors may have lived.
Our goal is to help you learn how to find and use records of your German-speaking ancestors.
FamilySearch Creates Community Groups
FamilySearch has created a new tool for researchers to get help with their family history research from their own homes. This new site, called Community Groups, is a site where people can
- ask questions
- upload documents and get help with translation
- participate in discussions
- learn about upcoming webinars
- discover new resources
Of course, it is free and there is no obligation.
Also, if people have special knowledge and skills, they can
- answer questions
- translate documents for others
- share new resources
Of particular interest would be the ‘Germany’ group, but we have groups for other countries as well.
We hope that this tool will be a valuable resource for those interested in their family history.
For more information about how to sign up,
use the site, and see a list of some of the groups.
