This Day In History

Wise Words

  • We've uncovered some embarrassing ancestors in the not-too-distant past. Some horse thieves, and some people killed on Saturday nights. One of my relatives, unfortunately, was even in the newspaper business.
    Jimmy Carter
    Former U.S. President

  • Life is lived forwards, but understood backwards.
    Unknown

  • He who has no fools, knaves, or beggars in his family was begot by a flash of lightning.
    English Proverb

  • There are only two lasting bequests we can give our children - one is roots, and the other, wings.
    Hodding S. Carter

  • In all of us there is a hunger, marrow deep, to know our heritage - to know who we are and where we came from. Without this enriching knowledge, there is a hollow yearning. No matter what our attainments in life, there is still a vacuum, an emptiness, and the most disquieting loneliness.
    Alex Haley, Roots

  • We are the children of many sires, and every drop of blood in us in its turn ... betrays its ancestor.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson

  • Why waste your money looking up your family tree? Just go into politics and your opponents will do it for you.
    Mark Twain

Members Only

As a Member of the NWMGS, the Journal and the Newsletter are available for download, in PDF format. To access these documents, please send an email to admin@nwmogenealogy.com with your name and membership number. Your username and password will be emailed to you (please allow one to two business days). We will be adding Journals as we have the time to digitize the older ones, so please check back. If there is a particular issue you are interested in seeing online, drop us a line and we'll do our best to make it a priority!

If you are not a member, and would like to be one, please download and return this Membership Application.

Each of the Journals has an index at the very end. These PDF files are not searchable, however, using the index should quickly and easily tell you if the surname you are researching is listed anywhere in that particular volume. Remember that the index refers to the page number within the Journal, not the page number within the file (they do not coincide).
