Genealogy

This is a guide to genealogy resources available at the St. Mary's College of Maryland Library, and via the Web. You will find materials on genealogy, historical records, and websites to assist in your search for family connections (see the Table of Contents).

Our primary function at St. Mary’s College at Historic St. Mary's City is to instruct our students to become informed independent researchers. We do not perform historical or genealogical research. However, the librarians  will gladly help in your search for information in our collections. 

We maintain a circulating Maryland Collection of general materials on the state. We also have materials in Reference, Special Collections, and microfilm for use in the library only.
