The Saginaw Genealogical Society (SGS) was founded in 1971 through the efforts of Dr. Richard Mudd and other dedicated people from Saginaw county and the surrounding area. Whenever possible we work in conjunction with the local History and Genealogical Department at the Saginaw Public Library, (Hoyt branch), holder of the third largest genealogical collection in the state of Michigan. SGS was then incorporated in 1973 and is affiliated with the Michigan Genealogical Council in Lansing Michigan. The SGS is a 501 (c) (3) tax-exempt society. All donations are welcome and are tax deductible under IRS code.
