You may know a little about your ancestors, but would you like to know more?

Come to the Macomb County Library (16480 Hall Road, west of Garfield, in Clinton Townshi)p on December 13 and take a class that will show you the ins and outs of researching your family's past on the internet. This class won't take you through the stacks or have you flipping through piles of dusty books or trying to figure out how to use the microfiche machine. Instead you will learn how to use the world wide web as if it were your own personal time machine. You can look up family history on several levels--local, regional, state and national.

Everyone who attends will get genealogy charts and a booklet calle Beginning Your Geneaology Research" at no cost. This is a great opportunity to begin to satisfy your curiousity to know more about who you are and where you came from. Once you've gathered a good bit of knowledge, youll be able to share it with your relatives and they will surely be excited to know more about your family's origins.

The class starts at 7:00pm and ends at 9:00. It will be held in the library's computer lab so you will get hands-on experience. Each participant is asked to come with the name of a male ancestor who lived in the U.S. in 1930, so everyone will be starting to explore their genealogy right away.

Although this and other great programs sponspored by The Macomb County Library are free, you are asked to register. You can contact Bill Luft at (586) 412-5986 to register.
