About Us
The Silicon Valley Computer Genealogy Group (SVCGG) was named in 2004. The group formerly was called the Silicon Valley PAF Users Group; PAF is the acronym for the free PAF software. SVCGG features classes popular family history software programs, including PAF.
SVCGG is a nonprofit organization bringing together those interested in using computers for conducting family history research. With some 600 members worldwide, SVCGG is based in the San Francisco-San Jose, California, area known as Silicon Valley. Since the beginnings of the computer revolution, Silicon Valley has been the center of major developments in computer hardware and software.
Since its beginning in 1989, the Silicon Valley users group has been dedicated to improving the standards for family history research. We believe that genealogy work is too important to do carelessly and inaccurately. We want your efforts in family history to be useful for generations to come.
The group meets monthly in Santa Clara, California, except in Decembers. Membership entitles you to a subscription to our monthly PastFinder newsletter.
