Become a Member

Membership dues for all members (Full Members and Associates) are US $20.00 per year. Our membership year begins on November 1 and ends on October 31 of the following year.

For Full Membership, there is a one-time fee of US $20.00 for certification, in addition to the US $20.00 annual dues (total US $40.00). Each additional certification after approval of your first ancestor's lineage requires payment of a one-time fee of US $10.00. All payments from outside the USA must be made by bank draft or money order in US dollars and drawn on a US branch of your bank. We provide full members with a certificate of lineage, suitable for framing. Sample Certificate of Lineage
