GENEALOGY

The library has a significant collection of genealogical and historical material that includes San Augustine Tribune issues on computer, microfilm files (census, local newspapers, and other types), family files, and a wide variety of books and other resources. Patrons can access the HeritageQuest database at the library. A staff genealogist is also available to assist with research questions at limited times. Call, write or email the library for more information on this service.

It's free and easy. If you live in San Augustine, Shelby, or Sabine counties, all you need is a Texas Driver's License or Texas ID card and two pieces of mail with your address on it. The address must match that on the license or ID card. Military ID is also accepted.
