03 Oct Family History Hounds
The Family History Hounds genealogy group will meet Thursday, June 6, 2024 at 1:00pm in the McMillan meeting room for our monthly program. This month we’ll hear from Ron Prichard on researching with military records.
Finding Your Father’s (or Grandfather’s) War: Researching Your Military Family
The June program falls upon the 80th Anniversary of the Normandy Invasion of 1944, during World War II, so it is fitting to have a 3rd generation soldier present on how to research for military history. Ron Prichard will cover what kinds of records are available, where you might find them, how to search, and the sorts of issues which are typically encountered. If you want to engage in a direct encounter with original documents then you will discover the things you need to do, how to prepare, and successes you are likely to experience and the pitfalls to avoid.
