Our Mission
The DDGS Mission is to promote an interest in genealogy and to encourage and instruct members in genealogical research. We want to encourage and instruct members in genealogical research and locate, preserve, and index public and private genealogical records. DDGS publishes genealogical and historical information and we're able to assist and support any genealogical library in Delaware that is open to the public.
