Ina Gibbons will speak Sept. 28
GENEALOGY CLUB
Ina Gibbons will speak at the the Genealogy Club’s meeting on Wednesday, Sept. 28, in Clubhouse 3, Room 1. Social hour begins at 9:30 a.m. and the meeting will begin at 10.
The topic of Gibbons’ presentation is titled “Breaking My Brick Wall.” She will talk about what happened when she reread every word of an old document that she had in her possession for many many years.
Gibbons was born in Greenrock, Scotland, and came to America in 1960 when she was 20 years old. She was supposed to stay for one year;however, she met her future husband and the rest is history. She started genealogy research in 1995 and immediately became addicted.
The Genealogy Library is located in Clubhouse 3, adjacent to the reception area, and is open Monday-Friday from 1-4 p.m. and Sundays from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. The club is still in need of a volunteer for Saturdays.
Nominations are open for the board of directors. A trip is being planned to visit the Orange County Family Search Library in Yorba Linda on Oct. 4 from 10 a.m.-noon. A sign-up sheet to schedule carpooling is available in the Genealogy Library. Volunteers from the FamilySearch Library will be available to assist.
