The Middle Tennessee Genealogical Society, Inc. is a non-profit genealogical organization serving the forty counties of Middle Tennessee. Since our first meeting in 1987, we have hosted two National Genealogical Society conferences and numerous one-day seminars.
Our
journal, The
Middle Tennessee Journal of Genealogy & History, is
an award-winning quarterly with articles of genealogical and
historical interest. Little-known Tennessee records are published
and indexed, along with family genealogies, Bible records and
material submitted by members. Book reviews are published January,
April, July and October.
We also host regular
bi-monthly meetings, which are held
in Nashville, Tennessee, on the
third Saturday of January, March, May,
July, and September. The
meetings take place at the Tennessee State Library and Archives, 1001 Rep. John Lewis Way N, Nashville, TN.
Our November meeting is an
all-day seminar featuring local
and nationally-known genealogical lecturers. We also sponsor genealogy workshops, and our members conduct
genealogy classes in the Mid-State area. Our past
projects have included a
Family Bible project in which we
digitized nearly 250 family Bibles and made the images available on
a DVD to members and the
general public. Our members also participate in indexing
genealogical records for public access, through a partnership
with FamilySearch. Our
newsletter,
The Messenger,
is published bi-monthly (January, March, May, July, September,
November) and contains announcements of area events and helpful
tidbits for genealogical research. We publish, on our web site,
announcements of
family reunions in the area. If you would like us to announce
your family reunion, please
contact our webmaster. This and much more is in store for MTGS
members and fellow researchers.
