For more than fifty years, the Cape Cod Genealogical Society has been helping participants research their family histories. Genealogy is more than dates and vital statistics – it's the story of our lives and our ancestors lives, placing them in the context of location and history. Join us as we explore who we are and how we got here.
Our Board of Directors, consisting of up to twenty members, is made up of the five Officers of the Society, the immediate Past President, chairs of the Standing Committees, and four Directors–at–Large. Officers and the Directors–at–Large are elected by the membership. These are our current Officers and Committee Chairs.
