 Welcome
to the official website for the Lithuanian Global Genealogical
Society. LGGS is a non-profit society that provides this site for
the use of LGGS members, fellow genealogists, and those just starting their research on Lithuania, and family genealogy. Our mission
is to collect, preserve, and disseminate knowledge and information
about Lithuanian genealogical and related historical, biographical,
and heraldic data; to inculcate and promote interest in accurate
research in these fields; to issue publications in various forms
of media; and to encourage, promote, and provide genealogical education
and scholarly training for all interested in these endeavors.

19Jun2009 - Access to the website has been restored. There was a recent upgrade by the host provider that caused a problem with how the pages were executed by the server. My apologies that I was unable to fix this problem sooner! However, you should now have access and the databases should be back online! Richard
