The Genealogical Forum of Oregon is looking for a property to purchase in the Portland area for a permanent home. We have a standing committee that has developed a list of building needs, but we aren't experts! We could use help from anyone who has been involved with purchasing an office or retail building to help us determine what renovations might be needed for a property and guide us in getting an estimate of likely costs.

Mission Statement
The GFO exists to promote genealogy and to provide genealogical education, to preserve and provide genealogical and historical resources, and to compile and publish within the genealogical community.
Description
The Genealogical Forum of Oregon (GFO) is the largest genealogical society in the Pacific Northwest, serving Oregon, Washington, Alaska, and Idaho. The organization was founded in 1946, and since then has operated as an all-volunteer organization. There has never been a paid staff member in our 78-year history. We operate the largest genealogical library in the Pacific Northwest.
Our Purposes
- To provide robust educational opportunities.
- To serve as a regional resource of genealogical information not geographically limited to the Pacific Northwest.
- To provide convenient access to a broad range of historical resources for genealogical research in a variety of forms.
- To identify and satisfy specific research needs, based on input from Library users.
- To provide a safe and welcoming community for anyone interested in pursuing their family history.
The GFO Research Library has more than 54,000 holdings for all of the United States and many locations around the world, with particular strengths in the Pacific Northwest, Virginia, and French Canada. We provide access to many popular subscription genealogy websites and we are working to provide digital access to a growing collection of materials while supporting our members wherever they live.
