ATTENTION ALL GENEALOGY CLUB MEMBERS AND FRIENDS.
The members of our club welcome you to our web home and know you will find it informative. We are a happy bunch who just love to talk about genealogy. We crave to learn more about how to do research and especially like to share our successes and our family histories.
Many people do not know what genealogy is, so look us over and learn.
We invite all of our neighbors in Oak Run to visit us during one of our meetings. Who knows, you may be come a genealogist too!!
"What's in a name? The answer is, quite a bit actually. If you are beginning a search of your family tree it will help you tremendously to know the history of your family name. Many of the English ancestors have family crests that have been handed down for generations. Come to the meeting and talk about your family name and its origin.
