From Charts to DNA

Tue, Oct 20 · 6:30 PM Woodridge Neighborhood Library

Join us in the large meeting room on the first floor of Woodridge Library to discover Genealogy. If you’ve started researching your family history and aren’t sure how to move beyond a family tree, or are curious about what comes next, this workshop is for you! This in-person, intermediate workshop offered by the DC History Center and DC Public Library works well as a follow up to Genealogy 101 or if you’re comfortable with the basics of family research. Every family history is different, with its own questions and challenges. Through short presentations paired with small group discussions, this session is designed to meet you where you are. Experienced genealogists will be on hand to help you think through problems, share strategies, and identify your next steps. You’ll leave with practical approaches and a deeper understanding of how to continue your family history research. Click here to register with DC History Center.
