Exciting News for Our Members!
We now have even more value for your membership: you can access AmericanAncestors.org and Genealogybank.com at the Brown House. Please visit our Family History Library and check out these newly available online databases, and tell us what you think.
AmericanAncestors.org is an award-winning website provided by the New England Historic Genealogical Society (NEHGS), and is the online repository for more than 1 billion searchable names from America and beyond. Founded in 1845, the NEHGS provides expertise and research in nearly all aspects of family history, from 17th-century colonial New England through twentieth-century immigration research. Through this website, we have access to over 1 billion records in 454 different databases, including South Carolina: Deaths, 1915-1943; Colonial Soldiers and Officers in New England, 1620-1775; and England: Marriages, 1538-1973.
Genealogybank.com is a newspaper database that contains the largest online obituary archive (250 million) in the world. 95% of the newspapers are exclusive to them, including 7,000 newspapers from 1690-Today. The database includes 164 newspapers from Georgia.
