Welcome
to
Plymouth County Genealogists, Inc. (PCGI)
Our Next Zoom Gathering will be Saturday, May 2nd, 2020!
Due to the current COVID-19 outbreak, we have had to cancel our April and May Gatherings. To make-up for this, we thought we would hold a PCGI Gathering on Zoom instead. We will be holding one on Saturday, April 18th as a test-run to see how it goes and we will follow with a second one on Saturday, May 2nd. Both of these will be held at 12 PM noon just as our regular Gatherings would be. There will be no speaker; just general discussion about genealogy and quarantine life. If you have any questions about this, please feel free to e-mail us and we will get back to you as quick as we can!
Our Next In-Person Gathering will be Saturday, June 6th, 2020!
What is PCGI?
PCGI is a local non-profit genealogy group based out of East Bridgewater. We meet at East Bridgewater Public Library on the first Saturday every month September through June (except for September, in which our Gathering is held on the second Saturday due to Labor Day). Gatherings take place at 12 noon in the community room on the lower level of the library. We strive to connect enthused researchers of all levels with one another while also helping to promote and present informative content to both our membership and the general public.

History
Plymouth County Genealogists, Inc. was founded in 1975 as part of the Massachusetts Society of Genealogists; in those days, it was known as the Plymouth County Chapter. The group was created by a dedicated group of people who envisioned a non-profit genealogical society with three goals in mind; 1) furthering the advancement of genealogy as both a hobby and a profession; 2) the encouragement of sharing accurate documentation; and 3) the exploration of new avenues of research.
After temporarily disbanding, the society was re-established in 1978 and incorporated in 1993, now going by Plymouth County Genealogists, Inc., with the goal of promoting general interest in genealogy while focusing special attention on the family histories and historical subjects relative to the Plymouth County area.
