Welcome to UGA!
The Utah Genealogical Association (UGA) provides genealogical education and information for researchers at all levels, supporting members from across the nation.
Conferences and Institutes
The Utah Genealogical Association is not to be confused with the Genealogical Society of Utah, who microfilmed records and gathered them at the Family History Library in Salt Lake City. For those wishing to see what records they have, please visit FamilySearch.org.
UGA is now accepting proposals for its annual virtual Summit of Excellence Conference. The theme this year is "Finding Your Focus." Proposals are due by 11:59 PM on Saturday, April 15, 2023. We are looking for presentations from beginner to high-intermediate levels on all genealogy topics including getting started, record types, methodology, evidence analysis, minority research, DNA, genealogical writing, and others.
Please submit proposals using the following form: https://forms.gle/N7VZ5jnD922pXfhu7
Address all questions to Julia Anderson, UGA Conference Chair, at conferences@ugagenealogy.org.
