Napa Valley Genealogical Society

The Napa Valley Genealogical Society (NVGS) promotes the study and preservation of family history. Using relevant technologies and research methods, we strive to create a vibrant learning community in which researchers of all levels and backgrounds share discoveries and celebrate the human story.

NVGS’s library contains more than 9,000 holdings, which cover the precolonial era to the present day. The collection is the main repository for Napa County records, but offers much more, including substantial resources on Colonial America, each of the 50 states, and many foreign countries.
