West-Central Missouri Genealogical Society and Library, Inc. is a volunteer-based, ten county organization of persons interested in the research and study of their ancestry and family histories. We study methods of research, help develop and maintain ancestral charts and records, maintain a genealogical library, assist our members in their research and compilations, and sponsor or participate in other activities that benefit or encourage the study of family histories. The Missouri counties we represent are Bates, Benton, Cass, Henry, Jackson, Johnson, Lafayette, Pettis, Saline, and St. Clair Counties.
