The Rhode Island Genealogical Society was begun in 1975 by a small
group of individuals interested specifically in Rhode Island Families and the problems inherent in tracing them. Since then, we have grown to include
about 900 members from across the United States, Canada and Mexico, all working to uncover our Rhode Island roots.The Society publishes a quarterly named for that pursuit. Rhode Island
Roots features many Rhode Island records, such as cemetery and tax lists, General Assembly petitions, civil and military records, and genealogical
articles -- all focusing on Rhode Island families. Other features include articles about Rhode Islanders in other state census records, queries and our list of RI research volunteers.
Each year the Society holds two workshops, two lectures, and our Annual Meeting in May. The workshops and lectures held throughout Rhode Island
bring stronger focus to local subjects and/or families concentrated in certain areas of the state. Recordings of lectures presented to the Society are usually available to members for purchase.
