Suggestions Have you heard a great genealogical talk and think that CGS should invite the speaker to present for us? Is there a particular place you’d like society to consider for a field trip? These are typically one-day events. In the past we’ve visited the State Archives in Sacramento, the San Francisco Library, Sutro Library, Bancroft Library. Where would you like to go or go again? Please Leave us a Suggestion.
