Introduction to Genealogical Research

Join Bill Curtis, member and Community Education Coordinator for the Manitoba Genealogical Society to get started researching your family tree.

Finding Your Information
Monday, October 23: 5:30-7:30 p.m.

When researching your family history, you will want to know where to find information. Some of that information is “hidden” on the internet. This session will show you how dig out the information that applies to your own specific family, and will help you find libraries and archives that contain information not available online.

Free. To register, phone, visit or go online at winnipeg.ca/library.

DNA Testing for Genealogy
Monday, October 30: 5:30-7:30 p.m.

Are you thinking of doing, or have you already done a DNA test? Can DNA testing help solve a family mystery? This session will give you a basic understanding of what DNA testing is, explaining what kinds of DNA tests are available, and what they can and cannot tell you. It will cover topics such as finding living relatives today and how far back you might be able to trace your family.

Free. Phone, visit or go online at winnipeg.ca/library to register. This is an online event. A Zoom link to attend will be sent when you register.
