Ridgewood Public Library

GSBC July General Meeting Skeletons in the Family Tree: The Relatives They Didn’t Talk About and the Secrets They Didn’t Tell Monday, 27 July 2026 @ 7:00 pm In-Person at the Ridgewood Public Library Auditorium Free and open to the public
<h4>Every family has them—the mysterious relative who suddenly disappeared, the ancestor whose story never quite added up, or the family secret carefully guarded for generations. In this entertaining and informative program, we’ll explore the “black sheep,” hidden scandals, long-buried secrets, and forgotten stories that often surface during genealogical research.</h4>
This open forum invites participants to share stories of these conveniently forgotten ancestors, their secrets, and how families chose to remember (or forget) them. From criminal records and secret marriages to unexpected identities and enduring family legends, we’ll look at how some of the most fascinating branches of the family tree are often the ones left out of the family narrative.
Join us for an engaging discussion about the ancestors they didn’t talk about—and the secrets they thought would never be discovered.
Bring your family stories to share.
Please prepare your presentation to three minutes so that everyone has time to share. Please limit stories to individuals who are deceased and who have been gone for more than 100 years.
