Event Details

Dedicate time to research your family history in a friendly, community setting. You'll navigate some of the most powerful genealogical databases in the world such as Ancestry Library Edition, Family Search, and other online resources, learn how to read census records, and develop search strategies specific to your family's past. You're welcome to share your story and, perhaps, some pro-tips to help others who might be encountering roadblocks.
