Welcome!

Anyone with an interest in tracing their "roots" will find a home with us. We help beginners get started and guide them in their work. We welcome experienced genealogists and encourage them to share their knowledge with others. We learn from and teach each other in small and large group meetings.

Our more than two hundred and eighty members have come from many parts of the United States to beautiful Lee County, Florida. We are from a variety of occupations and our age range is broad. What brings and keeps us together is our interest in family history. As we share our knowledge, our research skills grow and so do our family trees.

Please explore our webpages. Check our Events to see what’s happening in our Society, other Southwest Florida Societies, and where you can find genealogy classes, workshops and seminars.

Meetings are free and open to the public.  All meetings are held in the Fellowship Hall at the Wesley Memorial United Methodist Church at 4141 DeLeon Street in Fort Myers, Florida. 

Join us at 1:00 p.m. on the third Thursday of each month and at 10:00 a.m. on the second Saturday of March, May, September and November. 

Come visit us at our monthly and quarterly Saturday meetings where you may make a connection with someone researching your family. You will be very welcome!
