Heritage Quest Research Library

Welcome to HQRL

Vision Statement:  A premier genealogy resource.
Mission:  To preserve the records of our ancestors and inspire interest in genealogy and family history.
    Heritage Quest Research Library is a nonprofit genealogy library in Puyallup, Washington, managed and staffed entirely by volunteers. HQRL's collection includes foreign and state books, family histories, special subject titles, microfiche, and historic maps. HQRL houses a bookstore where you can purchase genealogy books, family tree forms/charts, software and supplies. We also offer beginning and specialty genealogy classes for a reasonable price in our classroom and/or ZOOM.
    We help people become family historians...so they can bring their ancestors to life.
    Benefits of  HQRL Membership (see Forms Download) - why pay for individual data base subscriptions at home when an HQRL membership pays for six genealogy data bases for you to access at our library? Non-member day use fee:  $15.00 


Operating Year: January - December 2025
