We are proud that our dues are low at only $17 a year for individuals and $25 for two persons in the same household. We have a healthy membership that supports us so we can continue to keep dues low and offer most of our services for free. Below is a list of things your dues make possible. If you find those things to be of value to you in your family history research, support us with your dues contribution.
