Featuring a presentation by genealogy expert Jane Haldeman on Beyond the Obits: Finding the Life of our Ancestors in Newspapers.

Beyond birth announcements and obituaries, newspapers tell the comings and goings of our ancestors’ daily lives. Learn the when, where, why, and how of what to look for.  You only need to supply the “who.” Stay as late as 10 pm for help with your genealogy questions and open use of the library’s genealogy resources on your own device or a library computer.
