NWSCG  Monthly Meeting.

Sandra Trapp will present “Investigating the Resources @ Chicago Ancestors.Org” at the next meeting of the Northwest Suburban Council of Genealogists.

Sandra Trapp has been researching her family, her husband's and her son-in-law's for 13 years. She is a member of multiple genealogical organizations, an officer of some presented genealogical programs at various locations in the area, and resource chairman for the Naperville Family History Center.
The Chicago Ancestors.Org web site probably will not tell you the maiden name of your elusive 4th great-grandmother, but it may provide you with “meat for the bones” of your Chicago and Cook County ancestors. Sandra will guide us through the links that are unique to the web site and the Newberry Library along with exploring some other resources associated with Chicago land and Illinois that this site has to offer.
Join us at 9:30 AM, prior to the presentation, for casual discussion or to exchange information with others who enjoy genealogy.
