The Carroll County Genealogical Society, Inc. was founded in 1981 to stimulate interest in genealogy and educate the membership and general public in proper and ethical methods of genealogical research and gathering, recording and disseminating genealogical and historical information.

Meetings are held the third Monday of each month, except January, February, June, July, August, and December at the Westminster Branch Library at 50 East Main Street, Westminster, Maryland. The public is always welcome. An annual dinner is held each June and a holiday party each December. Both are for members and their guests only and require reservations in advance. The Society's collection is also housed at the Westminster Branch Library. The information staff will direct researchers to the collection.

Library hours are:
Mon-Thur 9:00-8:45
Fri-Sat 9:00-5:00

A quarterly newsletter, The Carrolltonian, is published in September, December, March and June of each year. The Society's special projects include copying cemetery inscriptions in Carroll County, gathering church and bible records and indexing materials valuable to researchers. CCGS volunteers will provide research assistance to anyone unable to visit Carroll County or use our research facility for an hourly fee plus postage and photocopying expenses.
