Puget Sound Genealogical Society kicks off Map Month with a class on Saturday, April 6 at 10:30am.  This will be a hybrid class.

 Mapping An Ancestor with Janet Camarata.  Geography is a discipline closely related to genealogy and an untapped resource for learning more about our ancestors. Using geography and maps in research provides visual clues to help answer questions about where, how far, and what is nearby. Learn about the George E. Curry family of Ohio and Kansas and how maps focused the research, located property, identified lost place names, solved a family mystery and identified jurisdictions to write for records
