Library Can Help You Look For Your Ancestors
Have you considered trying to follow your family tree and find out who your ancestors were? Do you need help knowing where to start and how to search for information? The Shingletown Library has volunteers who have agreed to help people get started working on their genealogy. They have access to several research sources and lots of experience in using them. They are available by appointment; sign up at the library. If you would like to take advantage of this free service, please call the Library at 474-1555 and make an appointment. Then, before you see the researcher, make a list of the names of the ancestors you know (perhaps your parents and grandparents) and any birthdates and places, marriage dates and places, and/or death dates and places that you know or can guess at.
