Starting Your Family Search

Have you ever wondered about your family history? Would you like to know where to start to find information about your ancestors?
Join us on Tuesday, September 16, at 6:30 P.M. for “Starting Your Family Search” with Lee Hollenbeck of the Kankakee Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR). Hollenbeck is the Kankakee DAR chairman of the Volunteer Genealogist Committee and chair of the Lineage Research committee. It is her job within our local chapter to help people prove their claim to a Revolutionary War Patriot.
In this presentation, Hollenbeck will explain the information needed and give us the tools to start your search for your family tree. Every story is different, but they are exciting to the ones searching for answers.
