Visit the SGS Library
As the Seattle Genealogical Society celebrates its 100th year, our library is open at an historic building in the Wallingford neighborhood:
4649 Sunnyside Ave N, Seattle WA 98103
Hooray! As of 9 May 2023 the building elevator is back in service.
The SGS Library is usually open for research Tuesday through Saturday. If weather conditions are poor and you want to be sure that the library is open or that the elevator is available, give us a call before you come: (206) 522-8658
Tuesday through Saturday
10:00 am to 3:00 pm
In addition to the library book collection, wireless Internet access is available. FamilySearch Affiliate records may be viewed on any Internet-connected computer within the library. Three computer workstations offer subscription databases Ancestry, Fold3, Newspapers Extra, American Ancestors by NEHGS, and New! Historygeo a database of historical maps and landowners covering 29 US states and pre-statehood Texas.

FamilySearch Affiliate Library
The Seattle Genealogical Society is an Affiliate Library for the Family History Library in Salt Lake City and FamilySearch.org. This means that when you are inside the SGS Library either using your own computer or our Patron Computers you will be able to access the "locked" records at FamilySearch.org. You will be prompted to sign up for a FREE account through FamilySearch.org, or to sign in to your own account and then you can access the records. The service is available during normal hours at the SGS research library.
