Are you looking to fill out your family tree? The Community Planning Librarian from the Pollard Memorial Library is teaming up with local armchair genealogists to demonstrate how to use genealogy databases, vital records, census records, city directories and maps to fill out your family story.

The Armchair Genealogy Group will meet in the computer classroom on the second floor of the Senior Center on the third Friday of each month. The Group also meets on the first Friday of the month at the Pollard Memorial Library.  https://pollardml.assabetinteractive.com/calendar/armchair-genealogy-group-11/
