Event Details

 Have some gaps on your family tree? Sign up for our workshop and packet, and we will assist you in filling in some information on your tree!

For the $20 registration fee, you will receive a packet made on one ancestor of your choosing. These packets share a wider story to help you understand your ancestor and their life a lot better. Once you register, you will receive a questionnaire to fill out and submit for us to begin our search to find their story. Registration ends on November 14, 2026, to make sure all packets can be assembled by the program date.

*This is an introductory workshop to assist and teach you the basic resources we utilized in finding your ancestor. In the time we have allotted to prepare for the program, we are not able to conduct research pre-1820s. We can and will share resources to examine for yourselves upon request.*
