Finding Ancestors in Church Records and Methodist Archives
Rev. Dr. Gary Dickey, pastor of the United Methodist church of Westlake
Village, is a member of many lineage groups including the Sons of the
American Revolution, Sons of Colonial Wars, Sons of the Revolution, and Sons
of Union Veterans of Civil War. He has participated in the Massing of the
Colors at Forest Lawn Memorial Park at Hollywood Hills for twenty years to
honor the birthday of our first president George Washington (often playing
the bagpipes for the marching color units). Rev. Dr. Gary Dickey knows the
value of Church records when doing genealogical research and will give us
suggestions about using church records to help us with our research.
Guests are welcome. Admission is free but donations are appreciated. For Information, call John Lindsay at (818) 349-0878.
