Library Genealogy Research Assistance
SJGS volunteers are available at the Caesar Chavez Central Library in Stockton on the first and last Tuesday of each month from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. We provide genealogical training and assistance to our members and local residents who are researching their roots in California, the United States, and worldwide.

The society produces a monthly e-newsletter with information about society activities and events, as well as articles about genealogy research and more. The newsletter is a benefit of membership in SJGS.
