Special Summer Seminar: Google Your Family Tree



On 15 August 2009, Daniel Lynch, author of the acclaimed book, Google Your Family Tree, demonstrated the effective use of search engines with an emphasis on Google. This was a well-attended and popular event that we are considering following up next year. If you missed it, you can still purchase a copy of the book. Click here for more information.

Other Special Events



From time to time the Society sponsors a special event, such as the Book Sales Jamboree or a special sales event or a book signing. The Society also participates in a variety of other community events. In recent years, these have included booths at Franklin County (MO) Historical Society Fair, Genealogy Workshop at Washington (MO) Family History Center, Kirkwood Ethnic Cultural Festival, St. Louis Scottish Games & Cultural Festival, St. Louis Strassenfest, and St. Luke's (Hospital) Golden Opportunity Fair.

Some of these events provide us with opportunities to present our products to a wider audience and they all allow us to answer questions about genealogy and about the Society and to promote Society membership.
