The Stillaguamish Valley Genealogical Society and Library was founded in 1985 and a year later obtained non-profit status. Our library has grown to include thousands of rare and interesting books, microfilm and microfiche sets, and internet access to prepaid genealogy web sites. We have gathered historical information pertaining to the northern part of Snohomish County and the Stillaguamish Valley, and its native populations and early settlers. The collection also contains material for all U.S. states and many foreign countries. This information is available to members and visitors during regular library hours.
