Stones, Bones, & Ancient Tomes and the Music of Our Ancestors


Tomorrow (Saturday, Oct 17) we (Butch & I) will be hosting a table at the Corona Genealogical Society's "Stones, Bones, & Ancient Tomes." This is an event to introduce the community to genealogy & how to do family history research. We will have a number of tables to help people with doing research for their Hispanic, Jewish, African American, and Native American ancestors; using DNA to find ancestors; archiving ancestral photos with scrapbooking and photo restoration experts; learning about researching Revolutionary War ancestors with DAR representation; what to expect in the 2010 Census; and consultants to assist with one-on-one research help. Butch & I will be presenting Music & Our Ancestors in our display of period instruments with occasional demonstrations, as we've done at some of the Family History Expos in Utah and Colorado.



To learn more about this event at the Corona Public Library, 650 S. Main St., Corona, CA, check the Website. And if you live in the Inland Empire, come on over between 10 am and 4 pm to check out the event in person. There will be door prizes given away throughout the day and classes to help folks learn about getting started in family history research and use the local resources of the Family History Center, the Corona Genealogical Society, and the Corona Public Library. Be sure to stop by the Music table to say "hi" and maybe sing along with a song of your ancestors. (CDs will be available for purchase.)
