About the Society
The Fairfax Genealogical Society was formed to promote fellowship and cooperation among persons conducting genealogical research and aid those doing research in our area. Its goals are:
- to collect, preserve, and disseminate genealogical information
- to promote proper genealogical methodology by highlighting education and adherence to standards of accuracy and thoroughness
- to foster scholarly writing and publications
- and to promote the preservation of records and resources.
We are researchers who come together to promote the highest standards and enjoy the camaraderie and opportunities that such an organization provides. We appeal to beginning genealogists and advanced researchers; our monthly events and spring and fall conferences are well-attended by both new and long-time members, and virtual events bring in researchers from distant points.
Volunteer Opportunities
The Fairfax Genealogical Society is a volunteer-based organization, and our work would not be possible without members stepping forward to lend a hand. We are always looking for volunteers and, by experience, have found that such efforts are richly rewarded by a sense of community and pride. Please get in touch with our Volunteer Coordinator at
volunteercoord@fxgs.org if you are interested in helping out.
Operating Year: July 2022 - June 2023
