1:00 pm to 3:00 pm LDS Church - Colville, WA
Once again, NeWGS member Kathy Ochs will be sharing another valuable resource for the genealogy researcher.

Whether you're brand new to family history or a seasoned researcher—or somewhere in between—The Family History Guide can be your difference maker. It is a do-it-yourselfer's dream when it comes to learning all facets of research. Beginners and advanced researcher alike can benefit from getting acquainted with this really helpful guide. |
