Carroll County Genealogical Society September Meeting

Speaker: Angela McGhie

Title: “Becoming a Census Detective”

Summary: This step by step “case” study will “investigate” one family and trace them back through several generations using all of the available census records. The presentation will demonstrate how to evaluate census records for “clues” to other records by paying attention to every question asked, and will utilize the population census schedules as well as the lesser-used non-population schedules.

The public is welcome to attend CCGS meetings which are held at 7:30 p.m. in the Dixon Room at the Westminster Branch Library, 50 East Main Street, Westminster. For more information on the society, go to http://www.carr.org/ccgs/.
