Please join us at our next general meeting on Monday, November 17, at 7:00 pm. This event is hybrid (Portage District Library, 300 Library Lane, Portage, MI, and on Zoom). Socializing and refreshments will begin at 6:30 pm at the library.
Immediately following the business meeting, KVGS member Laura Van Vlack will present “On the Map." Laura will make her presentation at the library.
Laura Van Vlack enjoyed studying maps long before she started researching her ancestors, so it was natural to combine the two interests. She has found that maps can help answer questions, lead to new lines of genealogical research, and, most importantly, open another window into what her ancestors’ lives were like. Laura will discuss several categories of maps and demonstrate how they can be utilized.
KVGS members can expect to receive a meeting reminder email with a Zoom registration link several days before the general meeting. Participants can also register on Zoom through the EVENTS page.
KVGS continues to offer monthly "Genealogy Help" sessions at the Portage District Library's Heritage Room, held on Thursdays following our general meetings from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm. Drop by the library on October 23 or November 20 to see how another perspective can help. You do not need to be a member to participate.
Suppose you missed an earlier program. Members can find recordings and handouts from many previous programs in the MEMBERS section of our website.
We look forward to seeing you on November 17 and then again on January 19 after the busy holidays. The website's Events page has details on activities and programs coming in the new year.
Best regards,
KVGS Board
