Time & Place of Meetings
Meeting Place Changed. Lewis County Genealogical Socity has asked us to remove our library from the Lewis County Historical Museum. The museum needs the room and working area for volunteers. We can not take book donations at this time, as we do not have a new location for our research library.
Traveling through the Pacific Northwest? We welcome new visitors, please feel free to stop by - you may just find a clue in your own genealogical quest!
