St. Louis Genealogical Society Speaker Series: Start with the Internet . . . And Then What?

Saturday, 26 October; Orlando Gardens, 8352 Watson Road, Webster Groves, MO

Registration opens at 8:30 a.m.; lectures begin at 9:00 a.m.

Genealogists should search the Internet for their needs, but how do you make the most of what is online and what do you do next? Four area genealogy experts will share best practices and give you plenty of ways to move forward in your research. For more information, go to the StLGS website <www.stlgs.org>.

Please note: The StLGS office will be closed on Saturday, the 26th so our volunteers can attend the conference.
