Volume 1
This volume contains more than 3,000 funeral programs

INTRODUCTION
The Buffalo Genealogical Society of the African Diaspora
(BGSAD) was founded in Buffalo, NY in 1997 by Sonia L.
Walker and Robert N. Davis, Jr. It was incorporated in the state of
New York under New York Education Law in 1999.
The focus of the organization has been that of an educational
entity, encouraging and promoting the use of genealogy/family
history as a tool for understanding the socio-historical context of
people of African descent in the U.S.A..
The purpose of the collection is to preserve the biographical
and historical information that is found in printed funeral programs
from the African-American community. The project evolved from
a discussion about the photographic and biographical information
that is generally found in the program that is distributed during
funeral proceedings. The information holds great research potential
for those involved in investigating and preserving family history
and genealogical connections locally and nationwide.
Discussion with representatives from other genealogical
organizations (from numerous ethnic groups and religious
denominations) revealed that preserving individual and family
history in this form is a tradition that is unique among American
ethnic groups. We concluded that the evidence of this tradition
should be preserved.
The insights that were gained from assembling Volume 1 will
guide us as we move forward. The project is open-ended with
future plans being developed that include placing the original
materials on permanent loan at a public institution and developing
a web-based searchable index.
The main sources of material for Volume I of the project were
individual contributions, with special thanks to Mr. Winfred
Williams of Fast Press for the donation of his time and materials.
Contributions were made by various members of the organization
in the form of time and effort in the solicitation, sorting,
packaging, review and storage of the materials. This also included
donated materials from their own collections. Without the on
going effort of the membership, the successful continuation of this
project would not be possible.
