Researching Your Family History

Thanksgiving-1947October is Family History Month and RESEARCHING YOUR FAMILY HISTORY will be presented by Fern Eddy Schultz, La Porte County Historian, Saturday, October 12, 2013 at 1:00 p.m. at the La Porte County Historical Society Museum.

This is an opportunity, if you are just beginning you research, to learn about many of the tools available to accomplish your goal. This program will focus especially on researching La Porte County ancestors but many of the methods of researching may be applied to researching elsewhere.

Whether just a beginner or an advanced genealogist, this can be a primer or a refresher course for researching in La Porte County. Come prepared to take notes.

A packet of information will be provided. Reservations are required by 4:30 p.m., October 9, 2013, by telephoning 219-324-6767, e-mailing feschultz@laportecountyhistory.org or at the museum. Regular museum admission fees apply for this program.

Space is limited so reserve now! A free-will donation will be accepted to cover furnished materials.

The museum is located at 2405 Indiana Ave. at the south entrance to La Porte. The facility is handicapped accessible. Please visit www.laportecountyhistory.org for more information about the La Porte County Historical Society and its Museum.
