Gwinnett Death Index

Much of this content is taken from the Gwinnett County Georgia Deaths CD, sorted by last name, DOB, DOD, and cemetery. The GHS office has corrections and additions available for researchers. Please make an appointment. 

Gwinnett Survey of Homes

In 1978, Ted Bessette conducted a survey on behalf of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources of historic properties in Gwinnett which might be eligible for inclusion on the National Register. In 2005, the original documents were converted to digital by James Pugsley of the Gwinnett County Department of Planning & Development. This is an incredible snapshot of Gwinnett County before it changed and our thanks go out to him, Mr Bessette, and the DPD and DNR.

GHS members get exclusive access to our archived collection of over 4,000 photographs, over 2,000 volumes of historic publications, court documents, Gwinnett County genealogy records. GHS is always adding new photos. Presently, anyone wanting to view any collection in our inventory may make an appointment to visit our Archives by emailing archives@gwinnetths.org.
