The Indiana African American Genealogy Group was established in 1999. The group was created by family researchers of all experience and interest levels.

Today our group’s skill levels range from those who are experienced genealogists to newly interested family historians.

Our vision - to discover and document the African ancestry in each family - lives through each person with whom we share, inform,  and encourage everyone we touch. All are welcome!

Our Mission

• Promoting the accumulation and preservation of African American genealogical and historical materials.

• Uniting all individuals who want to share in the growth of  African American genealogy.
• Fostering and encouraging family research through education.

• Transcribing documents for public use and contribute to repositories.

• Promoting community awareness of the importance of family history and preservation.
