Our very own Neal Bertrand, cookbook author and genealogist
extrodinaire will be our speaker. He will speak on My Notable Ancestors
showing old photos of his ancestors and sharing what he found out while
doing his research. I'm sure every member will be able to glean something
from his talk; les us have a good turnout for him and get enthused about
our genealogy searching for 2012.
By the way, have YOU decided
what your genealogy project for 2012 will be for the year? And think about
what you may be contributing for our 2012 Les Memoirsa picture, a chart, a
story, a brick wall cracked, a grave found, a tombstone picture,
discovered family relatives. All articles are welsome! The 2011 Les
Memoirs CD was great, except for a few glitches; we can make it greater
and bigger with your contributions. Lets go for it! Another reminder
is that dues for 2012 are due before the February meeting. After that
members are delinquent. Dues for the year are $20.00. Our treasurer will
be available at the meeting and will be happy to recieve your 2012 dues.
Besides the educational meetings with refreshments, the society is happy
to assist you with your genealogical search offering pointers and
suggestions. The society is thankful for you continued support and looks
forward to seeing you at all of its meetings.
Don't forget this
Thursday evening at the South Regional Library at 6:00 P.M. for Neal
Bertrand and the Lafayette Genealogical Society.

Genealogy 101 Have you heard of the Attakapas Gazette?
What was it? It was a quarterly publication but what it did contain of
genealogical interest? Your president thought that it is such a rich
source of historical and genealogical information that members should be
aware of articles included in its publication. I'll give a brief
history of it, an overview of some indeses, and some genealogical tidbits
it may hold. Are you having any problems with your research? Do
you have a brick wall? Bring names, dates, charts to share with members
and possibly help will be recieved. We can put our heads together to
suggest sources and help.
