SUMMARY:Mar 2026 Chapter Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Our March meeting will be a round table of research problems rather than a specific topic presentation. Members who have a genealogical brick wall or research problem are submitting well-defined genealogical background information before the meeting and we will choose three or four to discuss during the meeting to try to help the researcher break through their difficulty.  \nThe meeting will be held at the Masonic Center but will also be viewable via Zoom. Guests are always welcome\, so please CONTACT US if you are not yet a chapter member and want to participate via Zoom.

SUMMARY:Apr 2026 Chapter Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Chapter member Pamela Brown is speaking at our April 19th meeting about her genealogist work for the U.S. Army Past Conflicts Repatriation Branch (PCRB)\, where she researches and identifies primary next of kin and DNA-eligible relatives for missing Soldiers from wars and conflicts as far back as WWI.  \nPamela became interested in family history as a child and began her own serious research in 1999 to uncover the origins of her maternal grandmother\, who was an orphan. After taking a DNA test\, she discovered that her beloved father was not her biological parent\, which led her deeper into DNA research. She volunteers as a “search angel” helping others identify biological parents\, and started working as a genealogist for PCRB in 2023. She’s a member of several genealogical and lineage organizations\, including The Jamestowne Society\, General Society of Mayflower Descendants\, Daughters of the American Revolution\, and Associated Daughters of Early American Witches. \nThe meeting will be held at the Masonic Center but will also be viewable via Zoom. Guests are always welcome\, so please CONTACT US if you are not yet a chapter member and want to participate via Zoom.
