genealogy for everyone
Helping you find your
family roots.
Welcome to the Broomfield Genealogy Society!
Our aim is to make Genealogy fun and exciting. As such, we provide opportunities and education programs to help individuals find their roots. In addition, you can find out about the numerous resources available for ancestral research. We encourage our members to learn the proper ways to document their discoveries and share them with others. Founded in 2001, BGS serves Broomfield and the surrounding Boulder-Denver metropolitan area.
General meetings are held the 3rd Monday of the month, February – November, unless preempted by a Federal holiday. Meetings start at 6:00 p.m. (Mountain) for socializing, then a short business meeting at 6:30 p.m., followed by the program at 7:00 p.m. For 2023, meetings will be a combination of online, hybrid (online and in-person) and in-person only.

"Finding English Ancestors" by Ed Storey.
Program: There are many of us who have English ancestors. Fortunately, there are many types of documents available online and in a language we can almost understand. We will go through several of the types of documents and how to find them online. Many people are familiar with English census records or with FreeBMD. We will explore documents other than these to gain the maximum understanding of how our ancestors lived.
