Drayton Valley Branch

The Drayton Valley Branch was formed in January 1994, with eight-founding members. Our Society promotes the study of genealogy and supports others in their family quest. The Branch publishes a newsletter The Past Finder bi-annually—ever since 1995. Come and join us, we would love to help you!

Meetings are held every 3rd Wednesday, January to June and September to November located at the Drayton Valley Library, 5120–52 Street, Drayton Valley. We encouraged the public to join us. Genealogical workshops are scheduled throughout the year. Email us for the next session.

Our library shelves are stacked with reference and guidebooks, microfiche and CD's. A microfiche reader and computer are available for members use. The Branch's latest publication is an Index to Births, Marriages and Deaths of Drayton Valley and the Surrounding Area.  It was compiled from newspapers surrounding Drayton Valley, such as: Pembina News Advertiser, 1954–1965; Drayton Valley Banner, 1965; and the Western Review, 1966–2004. The 2007 publication is available in print and on CD. Prices are $55 for print, $25 for the CD. Contact the Drayton Valley Branch for more information.
