Family History Open Day
The Family History Group held a successful open day last Friday. People who attended were helped to progress with their family tree by members of the group. Feedback received was very positive. Pam also gave a very informative talk on her family tree.
I am working on my family tree and I have been so grateful for the help I have received from members of the group, this is what the U3A is all about. The leaders are available at the coffee mornings on a Tuesday, so if you need some direction on how to start a family tree, why not have a word with them.
