Please don't delay in signing up for the "African-American Genealogy Workshop," being held on Sunday, October 25th at Bluffton Branch Library.
The goal of the workshop is to introduce program participants to the proper research processes and the Ancestry Library Edition subscription database. Attendees must come to the workshop knowing how to point and click, open and close webpages, and type in a search box.
If you can, please bring a list of 3 people within your family who were alive to have been counted in the 1930 US Federal census. This will give you a very good start to uncovering your genealogical roots.
