Research Your Family History in GALILEO

Public libraries in Georgia offer several online resources through GALILEO for researchers interested in their ancestry. Since all Georgia citizens have access to GALILEO through their public library, every person in Georgia has these genealogy resources at his or her fingertips.

HeritageQuest Online includes census records, local histories, family histories, and more.

Ancestry Library Edition includes military, immigration, census, court, birth, marriage, and death records as well as maps, images, obituaries, and much more. (This database is only available in the library due to licensing restrictions from the vendor.)
