Membership in the Jamestowne Society is by invitation and in accordance with the Society's bylaws. Begin the application process by contacting a member of the Jamestowne Society or the Jamestowne Society Company most convenient to you, and expressing your interest in becoming a member. Prospective members must demonstrate descent from a Qualifying Jamestowne Ancestor to the satisfaction of the Society genealogist.
 

Upon your receipt of an invitation from the Society to apply for membership, and your acceptance of the invitation, you will be sent a preliminary application to complete. This form has a space for you to indicate your qualifying Jamestowne ancestor. The preliminary application also serves as an order form for the Jamestowne Society Application Software. All applications must be completed using the Society's computer software. After review of your preliminary application, if it appears that you are a candidate for Society membership, you will be sent the application software on your choice of either a CD or a floppy disk.
