Denton County Genealogical Society Programs, plus other local and Texas State genealogy events
2021-2022 Programs and Events:
Serendipity, Unexpected Results, and Eureka Moments: Discussion of Genealogy Experiences.
The Denton County Genealogical Society will hold its monthly meeting, in person, on Thursday, May 12, 2022. Refreshments and networking will start at 6:30 p.m. at the Emily Fowler Central Library, 502 Oakland Street, and the meeting and program will begin at 7 p.m. Visitors are welcome.
One of the best ways to make new discoveries in your own genealogical research is to hear about the successes of others. Everyone is encouraged to bring their stories, heirlooms, and important documents for our popular annual “show and tell.” The roundtable session will follow a brief annual business meeting which will include the election of officers for the 2022-2024 term.
