High school yearbooks introduce you to a whole different person than the ancestor you may know. Yearbooks can provide quotes, superlatives, club activities, sports, nicknames and more! Was your grandmother head cheerleader, or perhaps student body president? Find out now!
Access all the awkwardness
We have thousands of colleges and universities in our collection. Dates and events are great for tracking down ancestors, but college yearbooks let you know more about who your relatives were, almost like you can travel back in time and meet them yourself.

About the Database
This database contains almost 17,000 books. They come from middle schools, junior high schools, high schools, preparatory schools, colleges and universities, and other organizations from around the United States and Canada.
The information contained in yearbooks will vary by time period and location. Among the information you might find:
Yearbooks can provide a great view of your ancestor at a specific moment in time, usually when they are in their youth. You can see what activities they participated in. Sometimes students provided quotes or other insights to their dreams for the future.
One thing that researchers often forget is that students are not the only people you will find in yearbooks. The faculty and staff of the institution are also often included. If you have ancestors who were teachers, administrators, cooks, janitors, or other school employees, you may be able to find images or other information about your ancestors in yearbooks.
