Tewksbury Genealogy Group ON ZOOM (*RR)

Tuesday, November 24, 6pm (EARLY START)

The new Tewksbury Genealogy Group, which generally meets the fourth Tuesday evening of every month, is open to everyone who's interested in genealogy. Each meeting -- which will take place via Zoom -- consists of a presentation from a guest speaker (typically a professional genealogist), followed by a period where members can briefly share their latest genealogy research, and then the library will share a genealogy resource its patrons can access for free. The presentation for the November 24 meeting is "Six Mysteries Genealogists Can Unlock For Their Families" with Michelle Backman. As genealogists, you solve the mysteries of your family tree. You comb through data and connect the dots. You uncover new facts and reveal clues that prove whether the folklore is true. Your research is a priceless gift to your family, but have you started solving the everyday stories -- the rest of the mysteries -- that forever connect all generations of your family? Join us and discover six key personal stories all loved ones can unlock for their families. Backman is the owner of "Sunday Dinner Stories," a life story company who mission is to help grateful people preserve their family stories and connect all generations. She is also the owner of the "Life Story School," which offers online courses and workshops to teach everyday people how to save their everyday stories for their families. Sponsored by the Friends of the Library.
