CCGS Anniversary
November 16, 2026 marks the 45th anniversary of CCGS! Chartered with 22 members, CCGS has evolved into a community-oriented organization focused on stimulating interest in Carroll County genealogy, educating the membership and general public in proper and ethical methods of genealogical research, and to gathering, recording, and disseminate genealogical and historical information. Over 200 members are led by 5 elected officers and 10 committee leads overseeing over 2000 items in our library catalog, weekly research help sessions led by our members, 8 educational programs annually, a quarterly newsletter, 2 membership social events, and a new website with over 100 files of genealogy data specific to Carroll County. Thanks to all past and present members and leaders for their support and efforts given towards the growth and vitality of CCGS! If you are not a member, please consider joining us!
