State Historical Societies List 2026

 

It has been forever since I have posted, but here is an updated list of all the State Historical Societies. 

I did use AI to assist with the information, let me know if you find any errors.  Make sure to subscribe so you can get my new content.

To find Programs for each state, go to their website. My public Google Genealogy Calendar should have most of the events as well. It can be found at https://www.thesleeplessgenealogist.com

This is a work in progress and will be updated as events are brought to my attention. This is a public calendar I created in Google, listing all the upcoming events that are genealogy related. All times are added in East Coast time, so convert accordingly.

I've added: FREE webinars, Conferences, and other Education opportunities

Single-day events are usually FREE
Conferences (multiday events) have registration fees and have "$$$" in front of the title.

Please send me an email/ IM on Facebook if you have an event you want me to add to the calendar or if you find a mistake. This is a free service, Please enjoy.

Calendar for virtual webinars and conferences in the Genealogy world
