Upcoming Virtual Genealogy Program
May 2025
 
 
Good Afternoon:  Here is our next virtual genealogy program for May 2025.  I’ve included the registration link in the program description below.  All library programs are free and open to the public.  If for any reason, you have difficulty in registering, please email me and I will register you and send the confirmation back to you. 
 
Topic:  Preserving Your Family History
Registration:  https://leelibrary.librarymarket.com/event/online-preserving-your-family-history-109851
Date:  Tuesday, May 13, 2025
Location:  Virtual Go To Webinar
Time: 10am-11:15am
Speaker: Connie Lizak - State Librarian – Florida State DAR, Shell Point Genealogy Society – Lee County Genealogical Society
 
Program Description:  Death is an inevitable fact of life.  For genealogists this is an issue that is a constant source of stress. “What do I do with all my stuff? Nobody wants it!” Connie Lizak will share examples from her own family history on how you might preserve your family history for future researchers and generations.  Some of the examples Connie will discuss and share are items such as personal diaries and journals, Great-grandmother Koser's quilt, family Bibles, Aunt Ethel's stories, compiled research, family recipes, letters and photographs.
 
Feel free to contact me with any questions.  Please note that even though a similar program was given in April at the Lee County Genealogy Society  monthly meeting,  Connie has emphasized they every time she presents this popular program, there are always new variations that are added.  Because of its importance, this is a topic of great importance to all genealogists.
Thank you for your continued support.
