GAS was founded in 1976, our Nation’s 200th birthday, with a nucleus of 13 dedicated members. Its objectives are to encourage the research, publication, and preservation of genealogical and historical material; and to instruct and lend assistance to the membership and the public in modern methods of research. These objectives are accomplished at regular meetings and association-sponsored workshops, lectures, field trips and other educational activities.
The Association offers many educational opportunities to attend seminars and classes in genealogy-related subjects. There is usually something for everyone at our meetings, from the beginner to the more experienced genealogist.
Meetings are held on the third Wednesday of each month except July, August and December at 1:00pm in the Belle Cooledge Library located at 5600 South Land Park Drive, Sacramento. We produce a monthly newsletter, The Lamplighter, which is available on our website to members. We also maintain a genealogical book and periodical collection at the Sacramento Public Library Central Branch, 2nd Floor, located at 828 "I" Street.
