Gearing up for Family History Month

Welcome to this week's Tree Talk Tuesdays. September is a busy month in the Genealogy Department at SCDL as we are gearing up for Family History Month. Typically the month of October is set aside as Family History Month each year and we celebrate by having programming all month long. This year the programs will held at the North Branch Library on Monday evenings and the Plain Branch on Saturday afternoons. Then to wrap the month we will hold the 4th Annual Diggin' in the Dark: Genealogy After Hours Program on October 26th at the Main library.  So, whether you are a beginner or have been researching for years we hope to see you in October!
