As announced in our last newsletter, the luxroots Genealogy group founded the genealogy club luxroots.club asbl on June 16th. The contribution of 8 euros covers a period of one year starting from the date of payment. luxroots.com-associates, luxroots.com-subscribers and igenealogy.lu-contributors are automatically members of this new association. If you are not yet a member, join luxroots.club asbl now. Under this link, you will find information about this association.
We hope to introduce the luxroots.club asbl events calendar soon, with events starting in September.
With approximately 500 members, luxroots.club asbl is the largest genealogical society of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.

A second association was founded under the name luxroots.com asbl to manage our projects and our websites. The founding members of the two associations have signed a collaboration agreement.

With your registration, you have given us personal data that allow you to use our websites. These data will not be used for any other purposes. The law also requires us to file a list of our luxroots.club asbl members annually indicating the full name, address and nationality with the RCSL. In order to have the correct data, we modified the forms to register to our projects and websites as well as for modifying your personal data. After logging into luxroots.com, the page that opens will show your personal data stored in our files and allows you to update your information.
If you want to end your association with the projects and websites of the luxroots group, please anonymize your personal data by clicking Update your user profile.
With the same transaction, you can subscribe or unsubscribe to our newsletter or renounce to be a member of luxroots.club asbl.
Here you can also put the contacts for research to YES which enables you to do a search on a lastname and thus find luxroots friends doing the same job. This will allow you to contact them for an exchange of information.

We require your help to find the dates and places of death of people born in Luxembourg and in the border region, and who later emigrated to other countries. For these people, it is almost not possible we have here this information. If you have such missing information, click on the link add death information (on each card) and enter the missing data. We thank you and we will add 2 points to your myluxroots points counter.
