We all are here at CGS together for one main reason: The “G”.  We all are genealogists plugging away at or family histories in some way, shape or form.  As we do this, what are we doing with the information we find?  Putting it in Family Tree Maker, Roots Magic, or some other database?  Filing the documents in labeled folders or binders?  What will our family do with this “stuff” when we are gone?

On Friday, Elizabeth Winslow will be talking about family legacy books and how to create them.  Whether you join live at the CGS Library or online, you can learn how to create a book filled with the stories, data, and photos that you collect as part of our “G.”

When: Friday, October 24, 2025 from 11:00 p.m. to 12:00 p.m.
Where: Virtually via Zoom or in person at the CGS Library
Cost: Free to all
