A Brief History of Our Chapter
The Federal Government Accountants Association (FGAA) was founded on Sept. 14, 1950. On Sept. 8, 1960 the Virginia Peninsula Chapter of FGAA received charter No. 37, with Thomas E. Inman as president and 31 members. The charter was presented to the chapter during a ceremony on Oct. 1, 1960 by FGAA National President Raymond Einhorn. (Today we are known as chapter No. 57). Later, in May 1962, charter No. 43 goes to Tidewater in Norfolk with William H. Morris Jr. as its president. The Tidewater Chapter dissolved and it is not known if its members joined the Virginia Peninsula Chapter. In June 1975, FGAA changed its name to AGA. To learn more, read our Chapter History.
