Event Details

Family History Hunters is an informal meeting for genealogists of all levels of experience. Led by Archives volunteers Joan Wood, Janet Daniels, and Anne Bacon, the group meets monthly to discuss tips and strategies for researching family history. Each meeting begins with a short introduction to a particular topic followed by a discussion where members are welcome to talk about their research successes and challenges. Whether you are a veteran researcher, or just beginning your family history, please join us.

This month's focus: Simple sourcing your research

Location: Starting in 2026, Family History Hunters is moving to Bowman Library. Bowman has a dedicated parking lot and is more accessible for attendees.
