Coming November 13th!
WHAGS is teaming up with Family Tree Maker software to host the only Houston stop on their upcoming Texas Tour 2026 where they'll be demonstrating the latest updates in their FTM 2024 software.

-
A number of useful requested improvements in managing and reporting relationships.
-
Tools for cleaning up orphaned items (media, sources, and citations).
Donations Make Our Programs Possible
WHAGS has kept membership dues very low so that everyone can afford to join in and be a part of our great program. As we've grown our expenses have grown along with the membership.
Costs including website hosting, special equipment to be able to present hybrid Zoom meetings, PayPal fees to enable online membership payments, and by far our largest expense, our monthly presenters, have risen each year.
But, because of our donors' generosity, we have been able to cover our expenses and still have a positive cash-flow.
So, we want to express our gratitude to those who have contributed and made all we do possible. Click on the link below to see who's pitched in over-and-above, and perhaps you'll consider doing so as well. Donations are tax-deductible as allowed by IRS regulations.
October is Family History Month!
