Member Quarterly Meeting (LLCGS Quarterly Meeting)
2:00 pm to 4:00 pm 2900
Member meeting follows the program today. Program 2:00 - 3:00 pm and Business Meeting 3:15 - 4:00 pm.
Our program today is about Researching your German Ancestors using German Sources.
Till Fehmer, co-founder of Fehmmer Genealogy UG speaks to us us today via Zoom from Nottuln, Germany. His presentation is designed to give an overview of German immigration to the US, followed by demonstrating how to find and effectively utilize various primary and secondary sources found in Germany, including passenger lists, censuses, church records, administrative documents, personal registers, and more. He will share strategies for pinpointing the exact hometown from which our ancestors emigrated even when American records lack this information. Mr. Fehmer is happy to answer any questions you may have following the program.
The Business Meeting and the Program can be attended in-person at our Library and both are available on zoom. If using Zoom, registration is required using this link; https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/e14vUIA2SLKhIHK6oG4saw |
