The Society's primary interest is education methodology on how to research your family and not specifically Cobb County, Georgia. Many of our members are from other parts of the state and the country and we want to help everyone in their research regardless of the locations. When and Where We Meet:
General Meetings are held at 7 PM on the fourth Tuesday of every month, except December and as otherwise published in the Calendar of Events on our website. We are currently meeting via Zoom and you will need to register for our events in advance.

Tickets are now on sale for our upcoming symposium, “Before, At, and Beyond 250: Indigenous Cultural History in Georgia,” on Friday, November 13 through Sunday, November 15. The weekend will feature scholars and local experts, engendering discussion, learning, and reflection on Native American history before, at, and beyond the founding of the United States.

“America’s 250th anniversary is an opportunity to recognize the many peoples and cultures that shaped this nation before, at, and beyond 1776,” said Amy Reed, MHC Director. “The land that would become Marietta and Cobb County was home to Indigenous peoples at the time of our nation’s founding. Our symposium brings these important stories forward and reminds us that Indigenous history is American history.”

The symposium is part of the Marietta History Center’s ongoing recognition of America’s 250th anniversary (America250), connecting local and national stories through history, art, and civic dialogue.

Get your tickets now for either the full symposium or for individual days. Link in the comments. Registration is required for these programs. Museum Supporters at the Museum Explorer level and above can receive FREE tickets by email Lisa Oestreicher at [email protected]
