Mission of the LCGS
Our mission outlines the principles that shape our work and support our commitment to genealogy and local history.
- Promote genealogy and family history research.
- Help individuals learn about genealogy and apply that knowledge to uncover their personal family history.
- Collect, preserve and disseminate genealogical, biographical, and historical knowledge and information.
- Encourage the affiliation of people interested in exploring their ancestral heritage.
- Host and participate in meetings and events to raise public interest in genealogy and in the Lapeer County Genealogical Society.
Whether you are new to genealogy or an experienced researcher, our Society welcomes you. Our work is made possible by dedicated volunteers who generously share their time and talents to support our mission.
