Genealogy

Have you ever wondered who you might be related to or how your family came to the United States or, more specifically, to Pennsylvania or Ligonier? The Ligonier Valley Library's Genealogy Forum will help you develop the tricks and tools needed to trace your family lineage, start your own family bible, or just learn more about family history in general. Each forum meeting focuses on some aspect of family research and occasionally features a guest speaker. Programs are led by or organized by the library's Pennsylvania Room Archivist.

  • January 23 - Networking Night
  • March 26 - "Research in the Westmoreland County Recorder of Deeds Office": presented by Frank Schiefer, Recorder, and Gerry Fjellanger, Senior Clerk.

  • October 1 - "Discovering Your Family's Stories" presented by Donna Jordan
  • October 22 - "Witches in Your Family Tree? Let's Shake 'em Loose!" presented by Theresa Schwab

 

The group meets on the 4th Tuesday of January, March, May, September, and October from 6:00-7:00 PM. Genealogy Forum meetings are free and open to the public. For more information, call the library at 724-238-6451 or email paroom@ligonierlibrary.org
