The NextGen Genealogy Network is excited to announce our new project – The NextGen Scholarship! 

Once a year, we will be awarding a NextGen member a $500 prize to use towards a Genealogy Educational Opportunity or Genealogy event.

To apply for the scholarship:

Applicants will write a short essay on the event they want to attend and how this will improve their genealogy skills.

All entries must be emailed to [email protected] by June 1, 2021.

Essays will be judged by the Scholarship panel and winner will be notified by email by June 15, 2021.

The winner will be required to write a piece for the NextGen blog detailing the event they attended.

One Runner Up will receive a NextGen T-Shirt.

Terms & Conditions

• Receipt or proof of purchase must be provided to the Scholarship panel before prize money is awarded.

Attention of Bay Area NextGenners! We have an exciting new networking opportunity for those in the San Francisco area.

The Sutro Library, California State Library (located within the J.Paul Leonard Library on the San Francisco State University Campus) has the largest genealogy collection west of Salt Lake City. The Genealogy Librarian is hoping to start a genealogy group on the campus – all would be welcome!

The Sutro Library has an active social media presence, and can be found on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
