The São Jorge Genealogical Society is a registered 501(c)3 Non-Profit Organization which aims to assist those researching their lineage on the island of São Jorge, Azores.

It does so by:

1) Providing research support and helping to interpret findings
2) Making pertinent resources publicly accessible
3) Promoting interest in, and fostering knowledge of São Jorge's rich history

This project is a collaborative effort geared towards systematically photographing and uploading pictures for all cemeteries in the Azores Archipelago. The photographs are taken by devoted volunteers visiting the islands who are selfless enough to donate a small amount of their time to photographing and documenting the graveyards in the local cemeteries, before the persons interred there are exhumed as is customary throughout Europe after a certain period of time elapsed in order to save space. For more information on the graves, their inscriptions, nearby burials, plot locations, please direct your inquiry to the SJGS President.
