The Genealogical Society of Pennsylvania welcomes attendees of the Federation of Genealogical Society's “Footsteps of Family History” conference to Philadelphia. Whether you come early or stay late, you may want to fit in some research while you're here, even if you don't have Philadelphia ancestors. Philadelphia has a variety of records for Pennsylvania and surrounding states – and even quite distant states -- and also has records of various ethnic and religious groups in the US and abroad.

We hope the following guides to Philadelphia will help you enjoy your stay, whether you want to do research or just be a tourist. Be sure to come see us at booth 811-813 in the Exhibit Hall!
