Are you interested in genealogy but aren't sure how to get started? Have you constructed a family tree and want to know more about the lives of the people in it? Or are you curious about what genealogical research involves and what resources can help you get started? If you answered “yes” to any of the above, join the Fitchburg Historical Society and the Fitchburg Public Library to learn about the genealogy resources available to you.
