Genealogy & Java: Newspaper Surprises!

$10, either pay in person with cash, or Venmo or pay now with PayPal (see Tickets below). Come early to buy your java, a treat and grab a seat in their back room! Discussion starts at 10 am sharp.

Join me as I dive into the past to discover how newspapers can unlock fascinating family stories. I’ll walk you through my journey researching my maternal grandfather—where an unexpected twist brought his story to life. Whether you’re just starting or looking to deepen your research, this meetup is the perfect place to explore genealogy together! Note: Be sure and bring your experience with newspaper research if you’d like to share with the group.
