The Annual Pinellas Genealogy Society Seminar, co-sponsored
by the Largo Public Library, is scheduled for 23 February 2019 at the Largo
Public Library from 8 am to 4 pm. The library is located at 120 Central Park
Drive, Largo, FL.
This all-day
event features D. Joshua Taylor as the primary speaker as well as three
breakout speakers. Joshua’s four presentations are titled (1) “Finding
Ancestors in the U.S. between 1780 and 1830,” (2) “Treasures in the Archives:
Using Archive Grid,” (3) “Essential Technology for Genealogists,” and (4) “Timesaving
Tips for Every Researcher.”
Joshua is a nationally known speaker, author, and educator with a
long list of publications and leadership positions within the genealogy
community to his credit. He is also well-known for being a featured genealogist
on the TV show “Who Do You Think You Are?” and a host on the popular PGS series
“Genealogy Roadshow.”
The topics of the
breakout sessions will be: “DNA and Genealogy: Practical Applications” by
Denise Manning, “Vital Resources for English and Welsh Family History Research”
by Liz Pearson, and “Using Fold3.com for
Military Research” by Peter Summers
In addition to the speakers, this
event boasts a continental breakfast, box lunch, door prizes, book sale, and
plenty of time to network with other researchers and guest organizations. The
registration fee is $40 for PGS members and $45 for non-members. After 13
February, the cost is $50, so register early.
We at PGS are proud of this
annual, day-long event; and proud of the lineup of speakers and topics we have
scheduled. There is something for everybody—novice researcher or experienced.
