Become an Affiliate Partner with Genealogy Matters Magazine

Help us share family history stories with the community that makes them possible.

Genealogy Matters Magazine is a community-born publication for family historians, genealogists, storytellers, writers, researchers, and descendants who believe family history deserves more than a place in a file or a post that disappears in a feed.
 

Our mission is simple:

Family history, transformed into story, preserved as record.

We are building a magazine that gives genealogy stories a lasting home — researched with care, written with heart, edited thoughtfully, and shared with the wider community.

What is an affiliate partner?

An affiliate partner is someone in the genealogy community who helps spread the word about Genealogy Matters Magazine.

You may be a reader, writer, researcher, blogger, newsletter creator, society member, speaker, teacher, or family historian who believes these stories deserve to be seen and heard.

Affiliate partners help us grow by sharing the magazine with their own circles and inviting others to subscribe.

Affiliate partners receive a 30% commission on sales or subscriptions generated through their affiliate link.

Why it matters

So many family history stories are being written in notebooks, blogs, on Substack, family files, research logs, and private drafts. They are valuable. They are fragile. And they deserve a place to last.

Genealogy Matters Magazine exists to help give those stories a voice.

Each issue includes:

• Feature Story

• Storyteller Craft

• Family Stories

• Columns that invite deeper thinking about family history, memory, and the stories we preserve.

• Dear Descendants

• Book Reviews

• Featured Storyteller

• Research and Publishing Editorials

Affiliate partners help connect this work with the people who need it: the writers, researchers, descendants, and memory keepers who are ready to turn research into story.
