Honor Your Ancestor

Special Interest Groups & Education Classes

In 2005, DGS celebrated its 50th anniversary. As part of that celebration, we began a program designed to honor our ancestors and increase the resources available through the Dallas Public LIbrary, Genealogy Section.

Donate Money or a Needed Book and We’ll Honor Your Ancestor with a Bookplate and Recognition at a DGS Meeting, on this website, and in the DGS Newsletter.
