Our principal object is the advancement of education in history and family history in particular, and this is reflected in our education program and collections.

The SAG is managed by a small staff under the direction of a Board of Directors, and we could not open our doors without a dedicated team of volunteers. 

The Society of Australian Genealogists acknowledges and pays respect to the past, present and emerging Traditional Custodians of the land in which we operate, live, and gather.
