Subject: Genealogy Classes in Lemon Grove
The Lemon Grove Library has Genealogy classes the first and third Wed
of every month. They meet in the Conference area or sometimes out in
the library at a table. The meeting time is 6 PM until 7:45 PM.
Many topics have been covered over the years. If a topic is not pertinent
we do Brick Wall assistance to help move an attendees genealogy block.
This event is done quite often. My favorite way of an evening is to
do a small presentation and then move to assist those whom are lost
on where to go next, what to garner and whom to contact the second
part of evening. Sometimes the presentation gets engaging and we spend
the entire evening on the topic.
The classes are open to Beginners, Intermediate or Advanced researchers.
We welcome teenagers who are working on school projects or their own
work. We would love to work with teachers whom would like to know more
about where their students can gain information.
Topics that can be discussed are: Immediate Family Records, Distant
Family Knowledge, Land Records, Wills, Deeds, Tax Lists, Obituaries,
Bible Records, Medical Knowledge, PERSI, World Cat, County History
records, Maps, Migration, and the ever proverbial Census records (they
have many errors or completely missed ancestors).
As a member of the Chula Vista Genealogical Society, San Diego Genealogical
Society, and the National Genealogical Society and others, our members
or myself, are available to come and talk to your school class on many
topics.

page or my webpage. One of my webpages is:
