Intro to Researching Your Family History Workshop

Saturday, August 19,  12:00pm

At 12:00 p.m., workshop attendees will apply their newfound research skills, learned during our Getting Started with Genealogy Presentation, to make new discoveries! Search through genealogical databases and websites, while Library staff assist with questions or problems. Bring your Library card and family history as far back as you know (even if it’s just your grandparents), and we will help expand your search!

Please note: Participants can attend just our Getting Started with Genealogy Presentation or our Intro to Researching Your Family History Workshop or both programs.

Registration is required if you would like to reserve one of the Library’s laptops, as a limited amount are available.  Click here to register and reserve a laptop.
