Thank You Very Much! ...

Vielen Dank!

There are many ways to support the Immigrant Genealogical Society! As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, we rely on support from our members and donations from patrons who want to see us continue our mission to help genealogical researchers connect to their German roots worldwide! Would you consider supporting us in one of these ways?


Please consider making a tax-deductible donation in one of two ways.
