Genealogy Q & A - In Person (Special Interest Groups)
1:00 pm to 3:00 pm OGS Annex, 965 Oak Alley, Eugene, OR
Genealogy Q & A meets in the odd months on the second Sunday from 1:00 – 3:00 pm in the Annex.
Stuck on a brick wall? Maybe you don’t know where to look next or where to find the records you need. We will provide suggestions for you. We will not do the research for you, but you can take our ideas and conduct further research in resources that may help solve your research dilemma.
What we will need from you: Details on the problem ancestor and their family, what records you have, where you have researched this ancestor, and which records you have already looked into. Please bring your laptop and/or paper research with you.
Everyone is welcome to bring your questions, brick walls, or requests for guidance about researching your family history. If you would like more information, you can contact Linda A or Dawn. |
