Genealogy

Resources

Our archive has some resources that may be helpful to individuals researching their ancestors in the Harbor Springs area. However, we do not have vital records (birth, marriage, death) or property records. Individuals should consult the relevant county, state or federal agency for these items.

Appointments

We offer genealogy appointments geared towards helping guests learn to use the society’s subscription to Ancestry.com. Appointments are coordinated by curator Beth Wemigwase and are generally an hour long. For members of the Historical Society, one appointment each year is free. For any subsequent appointments, and for all non-members, there is a $25 fee. 

To request an appointment call 231-526-9771 or email beth@harborspringshistory.org.
