The Genealogical Society of Rowan County was organized in February of 1987, and we received our charter in 1988. A genealogical journal is published by the Society on a quarterly basis. The journal contains information regarding genealogical and historical primary source records found in Rowan County. A membership list and an index to the journal is published annually. In addition to the journal, a newsletter is published at the discretion of the editor and the officers of the Society.
All memberships run the calendar year.
Back issues of the journal for the current calendar year will be sent to those who join prior to 1 November. Fees received after 1 November will be entered for the following year unless the secretary is notified otherwise. Queries are free to members. Sponsors are entitled to all benefits of the Society as well as extra appreciation from its members. They should be typewritten or printed legibly and include the name and include the name and address of the person to whom the replies should be sent.
