Check our Calendar of Events below for programs of genealogical interest that are presented several months a year following our monthly meeting. Any monthly programs will start at 10:30 a.m. Research Room will be open following our monthly meeting/program from 12:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. We also hold an All-Day Seminar once a year.
The 1841 Historic Court House is a Historical Landmark. A visit for a program offers an opportunity to “take a walk back in history”. We invite you to join us and enjoy the experience and take advantage of our program.
