Monessen Public Library will have two genealogy workshops during the month of October. On Saturday October 18 at 11:30AM, Donna Vesely will present "Beginner Genealogy Workshop: Build Your Family Tree.” Are you ready to uncover your family’s story? This hands-on workshop is designed for beginners who want to start building a family tree using online resources. You will learn how to start a family tree with the information you already know, use free and subscription-based genealogy websites like Ancestry.com and MyHeritage.com, and walk away with a printed copy of the family tree you begin during the session. Special Bonus: All participants will have temporary access to subscription services (Ancestry.com and MyHeritage.com) during the workshop.
On Saturday Oct. 25 at 12:00 noon Donna Jordan will present "Coming to America Genealogy Workshop.” In this program, we look at the history of immigration in America. We give some tips for finding your immigrant ancestors. Take-home materials include Internet-based resources for immigration research. Provide links to European research sites. This is a 90-minute program.
The Monessen Public Library is located at 326 Donner Ave, Monessen, PA 15062. For more information call 724-684-4750.
