Английская Википедия:Alberta Genealogical Society
The Alberta Genealogical Society (AGS) is a non-profit educational organization headquartered at 14315 118 Ave, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.[1][2] Founded in 1970, AGS is one of the largest genealogical societies in Canada. Its mission is "to promote interest in genealogy and genealogical research through a provincial association, by providing opportunities for the exchange of genealogical ideas and information."[3] AGS publishes Relatively Speaking, a scholarly magazine and newsletter, and the organization conducts educational programs, and maintains a website with a database for its members and research guides for the general public.[4]
History
Charles Douglas Denney founded the Alberta Genealogical Society in 1970.[5] Despite the fact that the Alberta Genealogical Society is a Canadian archive, American genealogists such as Beverly Smith Vorpahl have discussed using AGS resources for genealogical work in the Pacific Northwest.[6]
Resources
The Alberta Genealogical Society houses the Albertan Index to the Registration of Births, Marriages and Deaths, 1870-1905, one copy of which is also accessible at the Provincial Archives of Alberta.[7]
