We serve historians and genealogists who are interested in the Kalamazoo River Valley region - and around the world, too.  Join us!

Happy New Year!

 

I hope you'll be able to attend the first KVGS program of the new year.  It should help many of us procrastinators find ways to share our genealogy discoveries.  Several members will share how they "get the word out" through photos, scrapbooks, blogs, posters, articles for newsletters, recipe collections, quilts, etc.  All attendees are encouraged to bring along examples of how they have shared their family history with others.

 

Have you checked out the unidentified photos on the website?  If any of those photos belong to you, contact info@mikvgs.org and the originals will be given to you.  The set dated 1906-07 are glass slides of a family in Kalamazoo.  The glass slides hve been given to the Archives at WMU but the scans are available to anyone to download and keep.

 

KVGS is on more than just our own website.  Visit us at the following links to check out our "footprint" on the Internet.
