WELCOME TO ST. CLAIR COUNTY GENEALOGY & HISTORY SOCIETY
WHAT'S NEW?
Our Society is now fully open to the public again! It has been a long journey sense COVID, but we have come out of it with more knowledge then when we went in. With that we are changing a few things in our Society; Zoom programs will continue but for members only. We also have decided to put a cost on mailed newsletters so check out our updated Membership Form on this cost. We want to remind everyone to check out the Event page for upcoming programs. We are still available through email, and our Facebook page for any questions you need.
Thanks you
SCCGHS Board of Directors
