Supplemental Certificates

Many of you have expressed a desire for supplemental certificates as a way to honor additional immigrant ancestors. Now you have an opportunity to do just that.  For example, if you joined GSS as a descendant of Peter Gruber you may now purchase a certificate as a descendant of Ruprecht Kalcher.

 Certificates will only be issued with the names of the original German and Swiss immigrants.

We are offering the supplemental certificates to members in good standing for a onetime fee of $25.00 per certificate. Funds raised will go toward preservation projects.  At this time, repairs on the Salzburger house are a priority.

To qualify for supplemental certificates, you must be a life member or, as a regular member, your membership dues must be up to date.  Submit a completed application for each ancestor linking each generation and a check for $25.00 to

Georgia Salzburger Society

2980 Ebenezer Road 

Rincon, GA  31326
