Bainbridge Island

The Bainbridge Island Genealogical Society (BIGS) will meet Friday, March 20, in the Bainbridge Island Public Library Meeting Room from 10:00 AM until noon.  The topic will be, “Mapping an Ancestor,” presented by Janet O’Conor Camarata, Association of Professional Genealogists, who will demonstrate

using geography and maps in research to provide visual clues to help answer questions about where, how far, and what is nearby, to learn more about our ancestors.  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.

 

Thank you!
