Pictou County Roots Society
The Pictou County Roots Society is a registered Canadian nonprofit organization dedicated to genealogical research and the preservation of historical records relevant to Pictou County, Nova Scotia. Established with the goal of assisting the public in exploring family histories and making historical resources accessible, the society fosters community engagement in local heritage.
Founded on November 11, 1998, the society held its inaugural monthly meeting to initiate its mission of supporting genealogical research and preserving historical documents for public use. Since its formation, the society has developed collaborative relationships with local partners, including the New Glasgow Branch of the Pictou Antigonish Regional Library, the town of New Glasgow, and the Pictou County Historical Society, to enhance resource sharing and community outreach.
The society maintains an office located in the Heritage Room of the New Glasgow Library, where its collections and resources are housed. It offers regular open hours from Tuesday to Friday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., during which volunteers and staff assist researchers and visitors. Monthly meetings are held on the second Wednesday of each month at 2 p.m. in the New Glasgow Library Community Room, providing a forum for members and guests to engage in discussions and activities related to genealogy and local history.
One of the notable services offered by the Pictou County Roots Society is an extensive obituary index, which includes records dating back to the 1800s, primarily focusing on individuals from Pictou County. This resource has become valuable for researchers seeking detailed genealogical information and historical context about the area’s residents.
Business Registration Number: 865862478RR0001
The society continues to serve as a vital institution for preserving the cultural and historical identity of Pictou County through its dedication to genealogical research, public education, and community collaboration.
