TriCity Genealogical Society September Meeting
Sept 2017
Dear Members and Guests:
I hope you will be planning on attending our upcoming September 13th program on Researching Probate Records by John Covey as this will be most informative.
Also, don’t forget that the Beginning Genealogy Class will start at 6:15 p.m. and this session will be a presentation on City Directories… You will want to attend both programs.
See the enclosed attachment. TCGS Sep 2017 Flyer
