A member of the St. Louis Genealogical Society will present a program about getting started with genealogy at the Belleville Public Library on October 4th at 1:00pm.
As with most pursuits, there is a “right way” and many “wrong ways” to conduct genealogical research. Many beginning researchers pass up once-in-a-lifetime opportunities, gather incorrect information, or fail to note where they received the information they do collect, simply because they do not know some of the basic methods of genealogical research. The wealth of data on the Internet (some of it accurate and wonderful, and some of it inaccurate and easily disproved) makes it especially easy for novice genealogists to simply "collect the wrong people."
A member of the St. Louis Genealogical Society’s Speakers’ Bureau will deliver a lecture presentation on how to get started researching your family history.
