BLACK HISTORY MONTH RESOURCES

Along with dozens of programs on our calendar celebrating Black History Month this month, the National Genealogical Society recently shared a list of resources for researching African American heritage on their UpFront blog. There are many excellent websites and societies to support your research, but this list is a great starting point. https://upfront.ngsgenealogy.org/

STORYTELLING, GENEALOGY, & FAMILY ARCHIVES

The Association for the Study of African American Life and History (ASAALH) offers a free self-guided certificate program of pre-recorded workshops about oral storytelling, genealogy, and familial archiving encourages families of all backgrounds to document their own traditions and stories. https://asalh.org/family-history/

2026 FAMILY HISTORY HILL DAY

The Records Preservation and Access Coalition is organizing Family History Hill Day in Washington, DC on 15 April 2026, giving family historians a chance to speak directly with lawmakers about the importance of records access and preservation and how genealogists rely on records. The first training takes place virtually on 25 February. Learn more and register at https://www.recordsadvocate.org/register-for-family-history-hill-day-on-15-april-2026. Learn more about RPAC at https://www.ngsgenealogy.org/records-preservation-access-coalition.

REGISTRATION OPEN

Registration for the 2026 GRIP Genealogy Institute is open! Choose from nine virtual courses in June, and eight in-person courses in July, with the new addition of two special courses in the fall. Courses are in-depth and taught by experts. See the courses & descriptions at https://grip.ngsgenealogy.org/

GOLDIE MAY ADDS A.I.

Goldie May, the browser extension genealogy research assistant tool, added a new AI assistant designed just for genealogists to their subscription plans. The new AI tool can access genealogy-specific sources that other AI services can’t, and helps you analyze ancestors, search records, evaluate results, and decide your next research steps. Best of all, your data remains private and isn’t used for training. (I can’t wait to try it out!) https://www.goldiemay.com/

FELLOWSHIP OF ROTARIAN GENEALOGISTS (FORG)

This new-to-me genealogy group shared ConferenceKeeper with their members in their recent newsletter, so I figured I’d do the same! Fellowship of Rotarian Genealogists (FORG ) welcomes Rotarians and non-Rotarians who are curious about genealogy and family history. They have a quarterly email newsletter with excellent articles and information from members and quarterly Zoom meetings with speakers on topics related to genealogy. Membership is $20 per year $100 for life. Find out more at  www.rotariangenealogists.org 

POLISH IN NY

Riverhead, New York, is launching a volunteer-driven effort for National Register of Historic Places recognition to honor the area’s Polish immigrant roots. The project seeks stories, photographs, and archival material from residents and descendants to help recognize and protect the immigrant legacy that shaped this area since the 1880s. Anyone who’d like to volunteer or has relevant family materials is encouraged to contribute.

HAWAII STATE ARCHIVES INDEXES

The Hawaiʻi State Archives has just finished digitizing 64 volumes of indexes and made them all available online, free for everyone to use. The indexes cover topics like genealogy, land, court records and more – sounds like genealogy gold! You can view them online at https://digitalarchives.hawaii.gov/browse/parent/ark:70111/1Q6x.
