Athens-Clarke County Library will offer help getting started in genealogy

ATHENS, Ga. -- The Heritage room at the Athens-Clarke County Library will be offering assistance for beginners in genealogy on Saturday, March 14, 2020 from 2:00 pm to 3:30 pm.

This free, informal session will help attendees get familiar with the wide range of resources that are available to them when it comes to researching family history, no matter where their family members might have originated or be today! Starting a family tree can seem overwhelming, that’s why staff members of the Heritage Room will be on site to help answer any questions. Whether you’ve just purchased a Genealogy DNA kit or are looking to explore the library’s free, online family history research resources, we are looking forward to getting you started on this special project!

All attendees will receive an information packet with resources and an opportunity to ask questions during the session.

This session will be held in Multipurpose Room C at the library. Please register ahead of time at ​https://athenslibrary.libcal.com/event/6118613​.
