Family Search LogoFamilySearch Affiliate Library
The Seattle Genealogical Society is an Affiliate Library for FamilySearch.org and the FamilySearch Library in Salt Lake City. This means that when you are inside the SGS Library either using your own computer or our Patron Computers you will be able to access some of the "locked" records at FamilySearch.org. To view the locked records you will be prompted to sign in to your own account. If you don't already have an account you may create a free account through FamilySearch.org.
