The Butler County Genealogical Society was formed in January 2003 and spent all of this past year getting up and running.  We meet the second Tuesday of each month at the Butler Area Public Library (which is located at 218 North McKean Street, Butler, PA) in the lower level conference room.  Our meetings begin at 6:30pm.

Membership to the BCGS is $15/year for an individual; $25/year for family membership.  Lifetime memberships are available for $300 per individual.  Membership includes full access to all meetings programs, activities, field trips and the quarterly newsletter.  Non-members are permitted to attend 2 meetings/lifetime before becoming paid members of the society.

Our current projects include an updated reading and compilation of all the Butler County Cemeteries, Township source books, and genealogical research for out of area individuals (fees charged).
