Genealogy Book Club SIG Meeting (Special Interest Groups)
7:00 pm to 8:30 pm Zoom Meeting, see registration information below
NOTE! We are meeting on November 18 due to the Thanksgiving holiday!
The Genealogy Book Club Special Interest Group meets on the 4th Tuesday every other month via zoom to discuss a book with a genealogy slant. Members are sent questions to review prior to discussing that month's book at the meeting. Book genres vary and may be non-fiction as well as fiction, including historical fiction and mysteries. Most books are available through the Carnegie Library system.
Our November selection is A Scattered People: An American Family Moves West by Gerald McFarland.
Gerald McFarland tells the story of U.S. westward expansion through the stories of his own ancestors―from their arrival in Massachusetts in 1630, through successive generations that moved west, at length reaching the West Coast in 1900. His family’s experiences demonstrate that most early Americans lived as the author’s ancestors lived. This is true American history.
You may register here for this virtual meeting. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. If you have any questions, please email Info@NorthHillsGenealogists.org.
The Special Interest Groups are a North Hills Genealogists Members-Only benefit. We invite you attend one Special Interest Group meeting to learn more about this SIG. You can then learn about joining NHG here: https://northhillsgenealogists.org/cpage.php?pt=121 |
