SUSSEX COUNTY GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY SPONSORS GENEALOGICAL CONFERENCE

The Sussex County Genealogical Society in Delaware will hold a one-day conference, “Tracking Your Ancestors” on April 30, 2011. Featured speakers Julia Coldren-Walker, Rebecca Koford, Charles Mason and others will cover topics such as Beginning Genealogy, Church Records, Identifying Photographs, Researching Your Home’s History, Brick Walls, and Methodology. A special feature will be individual consultations by John Lyon, John Polk, and Mike Hitch who will use their land platting expertise to help researchers find their colonial ancestral lands on the Delmarva Peninsula.

This is just a reminder about the April 30 conference sponsored by the Sussex County Genealogical Society. We have 17 sessions scheduled with well-known speakers. Margaret Dunham from the Delaware Public Archives will be discussing how to find your home's history--a skill that can be used in any state. Also John Lyon and Mike Hitch will be giving their new program "Mapping Colonial Sussex." The sessions are geared for all genealogists--not just those from Sussex County, DE.
Classes are filling fast and after April 1 the registration fee will go from $40 to $50. The conference will be held at the Delmarva Christian High School in Georgetown, DE. A full program description and registration form can be found at www.scgsdelaware.org. Hope to see you there
