20th Anniversary Meeting - Sunday July 13th

The July meeting will be the official 20th birthday party of the Monmouth County Genealogy Society. We have invited many former society members including Gary Parks, who was a key figure in the formation of MCGS.

The festivities will begin a half hour earlier than usual at 1PM, so we will have more time for socializing and renewing old acquaintances.

A short business meeting will begin at 2PM with our featured speaker, the country's second First Lady, Abigail Adams[Kim Hanley], beginning her presentaion shortly after.

 The meeting will be held at the Eatontown Community/Senior Center, 72 Broad Street, Eatontown.
