Upcoming Events
Family History Conference October 27, 2012 Would you like to learn about your family Roots? Are you unsure of where to start in searching your family tree? A Family History Conference will be held on October 27, 2012 from 10 – 3 at the Kingston Ward building of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints at 153 Fording Place Road, Lake Katrine, NY 12449. Ann Gordon, Ulster County Historian is the keynote speaker and will talk on "The Real Story of Soujourner Truth." Ms. Gordon tells the story of how genealogical records were used to sort truth from fiction in all the legends about Isabella (Soujorner Truth). Other sessions include: a panel discussion on Getting Organized; experienced genealogists in Italian, Latin American, English, Colonial, and Scottish genealogical research; Youth and Family Research; and using the State Library and Archives. We will also view a talk David McCullough (author of John Adams and Harry Truman) which he gave at A Celebration of Family History which took place in Salt Lake City on April 29, 2010.
