Diabetes, hypertension, cancer, infant mortality, and respiratory disease rates are high. Communication with isolated residents lacking computers and transport is difficult.

Preserving your past, one discovery at a time!
The OCMH Genealogy Club is a community dedicated to providing the perfect space for researchers to share their recent discoveries, troubleshoot difficult "brick walls," and learn new archival techniques.
Open to the public: You do not need to be an Oneida Community descendant to join! Whether you are just starting your tree or you’re a seasoned researcher navigating DNA results, our bi-monthly gatherings offer a supportive space to celebrate all family histories without the pressure of a weekly commitment.
Meeting Details
Frequency: Every two months - August 15th, October 17th & December 19th 2026
Location: The Mansion House.
Experience Level: All levels welcome—from "I just started yesterday" to "I've been at this for 30 years."
Our relaxed schedule is designed for busy people who want to stay connected to the genealogy community while having plenty of time to do their own "digging" in between meetings. A two-month gap allows you the time to:
Dig into online archives.
Visit family members.
Organize your latest finds to share with the group.
Ready to dig into your roots?
Grab a coffee, bring your computer and a pedigree chart, and join us at the Mansion House to find some ancestors together!
