The next Northeast Washington Genealogical Society meetings are on Wednesday, February 10, 2016. The morning Computer Interest Group (CIG) will meet in the basement meeting room of the LDS Church on Juniper Street in Colville at 10:30 AM.

Longtime member and newly appointed Chairman of The Evergreen Cemetery, Lora Rose, will bring us up to date with all that she has been accomplishing at the cemetery, In particular, she will focus on the detailed research she has done on several of the known Civil War veterans who are interred there. Lora is a meticulous researcher and her attention to detail is unsurpassed by most. Come hear what she has to share. You won’t be disappointed.

We will take a break for lunch at noon and meet again in the same location at 1:30 PM.

Our speaker for the General Meeting will be NeWGS member, Gordy Struve. Gordy recently became a charter member of the Sons of the Union Veterans of the Civil War (SUVCW) Fort Walla Walla Camp No. 3. He will share some of the history of the organization, current projects, the qualifications and how to apply for membership.

All visitors are welcome. You do not need to be a member to attend the Northeast Washington Genealogical Society’s meetings.
