Welcome to the Society of Australian Genealogists
The SAG has been helping people trace family history for over 75 years. Located in the Sydney CBD, we have a world-class library and manuscript collection, much of which is unique. We run an active programme of lectures, workshops, seminars and tours, have a shop selling books, charts and software and can give advice on all aspects of genealogy. We look forward to helping you uncover your family's history.

Membership Rates
Membership Rates
Joining Fee
Payable in the first year only, in addition to annual subscription:
- Ordinary $20.00
- Concessional (Full pension & full-time students) $10.00
The concessional joining fee is available to Australian residents who hold an Australian Department of Social Security full pension and health rebate card, or are full-time students at an approved Australian educational institution. Proof is required.
Annual Subscription
From 1 July 2010, the following rates will apply to all subscription renewals due from 1 July 2010 and for all new membership applications processed from that date.
Membership is open to anyone over the age of 16 years. Just print out and complete our Application for Membership form and let us have it by mail, fax or during a visit. [Electronic submission isn't available]
Joint membership is open to two persons living at the same address. Both enjoy full membership rights but only one copy of the journal is issued to joint members. Proof of residential address is required.
Direct Debit facilities
Direct debit facilities are available for the annual renewal of membership. If you would like to sign up to have your annual subscription debited from your nominated bank account or Visa or Mastercard please download the Direct Debit Agreement form here and return the completed form to us.
Funds will be debited from your account on the 20th of the month in which your subscription falls due (March, June, September or December) or on the next business day. This is a great way to 'set and forget' your subcription payment so that you don't have to annually send a payment to us, and also allows us to contain costs as we do not need to send you a renewal form.
