It’s Here! Conference Begins Friday

It seemed so far away and now it is upon us. Yes, the Washington State Genealogical Society’s Annual Conference begins Friday night.

Patricia Walls Stamm has four excellent topics you won’t want to miss:

Friday evening:
     Social Networking for Genealogists

Saturday presentations:
    Death Has Many Faces
     Elements of a Useful Research Road Map
     Discovering Our Ancestor’s Neighborhood

Professional speakers don’t come our way very often; it’s not too late to make plans to come to this once-a-year conference.
