Seminars/Workshops/Demonstrations
Researching Family history: 11am – 1pm
We are particularly excited to have Emeritus Professor Noeline Kyle to present a workshop on all aspects of family history including how to research and then write up your findings.
Noeline will be demonstrating the use of on-line sources as well as many other aspects of this fascinating hobby.
We are asking for a donation from those attending this workshop which on the request of Noeline, will be added to our ‘Meal-a-Day’ fund.
Noeline will also bring along some of her great publications.
This workshop is suitable for beginners through to the more experienced.
