We (Janice and me) finished the month of February with an incredible and enlightening day on Saturday, February 29th at the 2020 Discover Your Roots (Georgia) genealogy seminar held in Sharpsburg, Georgia.

The conference provided us the opportunity to learn from experienced genealogists, and teachers specializing in African American genealogy and historical research, with one-on-one assistance available in many instances.
One of the attendees, observing my name tag queried: “Do you know the source of your name?” Her inquiry sparked a conversation which reminded me of one of the many reasons why I became interested in knowing my family history. This amazing interaction occurred within the first ten minutes we had arrived! Needless, to say, we had an awesome day, discovering resources for searching, recording and presenting our stories to others.
We are looking forward to the 2021 Discover Your Roots (Georgia) genealogy seminar and hope to have you attend as well!
