Genealogy Club of Little Egg Harbor

What's New

 Our August meeting on the 24th will be a Workshop held at the

Little Egg Harbor Public Library on Mathestown Road.

Bring your laptop; the library has internet connection available for us to use.

This will be a good way for us to share our knowledge & skill

with Tree Maker and other programs.

If you are a summer visitor in the area interested in genealogy,

feel free to come and visit us for the evening.  Our members are searching

their ancesters from all over the world--not just Ocean County.  See our page

on Surnames for a list of families we are searching.
