GENCOM, the Computer Genealogy Group,
is at home in the parishes of Caddo and Bossier
in beautiful North Louisiana!

2010 is the18th year since our organization in July 1991. We are a group of Genealogy/ History/Computer buffs who recognized quite early that the Internet was “The Way of the Future for Genealogy!” At a time when many of the country’s most respected genealogists were wary of this new method of record keeping, we were one of the first groups that organized as a Computer Genealogy Society. We feel fortunate to have been aboard during that exciting period, watching, and taking advantage of the astronomical development in Genealogical Programs, and all that the Internet now offers researchers!

Fortunately our membership is composed of a mixture of computer experts and fine genealogists, so we have been able to balance our programs with the exploration of both topics. GENCOM was organized with the aim of providing a forum for discussion and mutual assistance in the relatively new area of Computer Genealogy. Our purpose is to create, foster and maintain interest in the responsible use of technology in Genealogical Research!

GENCOM takes full advantage of the vast array of new information that is being made available to us on the Internet. Many vital records are being digitized and published. The data you need to prove your ancestry is probably awaiting your search! We invite you to join us at GENCOM and share in this exciting new adventure in Genealogy. We meet at Hamilton South Caddo Library the last Sunday in every month except August and December.
