We are
Educators
The hereditary society community serves America by compiling data about our past, documenting that data, and making it available the general public. Thousands upon thousands of publications have been produced within our ranks, and our work is available in libraries everywhere. Our societies promote historical education on many levels, and many of our members are active public speakers and teachers in their local communities. We lay a strong foundation for our nation, reminding the world of America's unique history and great destiny.
We are
Genealogists
The hereditary society community is hard at work collectively researching and documenting the lineages of American and international families over the past several hundred years. We provide documentation for our work, making the road easier for generations to come. Furthermore, we celebrate the accomplishments and lives of those we study, honoring our past. Genealogical study is the passion and common bond of the hereditary society community.
We are
Historians
The hereditary society community is committed to the preservation and accurate depiction of, not only the raw historical facts which shaped American and European history, but also the nature of the lives of the men and women who lived in past eras. Our work is the cumulative product of hundreds of thousands of hours of personal and joint research. All this is evidenced in the books and writings of countless town, family and era historians associated with the hereditary society community. We provide a significant source of accurate, relevant historical data for generations to come.
We promote

From the disbursement of scholarships, to significant historical preservation, to leadership in community, state and national patriotic ceremonies, we are serving our fellow Americans on many fronts. The collective mind of the hereditary society community is one which honors the past, embraces the present and engages the future.
