Ever wonder about your family tree? Are you the family historian trying to sort through great-aunts and uncles, cousins, neighborhoods, and World War II service tales?
Ancestry Library Edition delivers billions of records in census data, vital records, directories, photos, etc. It includes records from North America, the United Kingdom, Europe, and Australia, with more countries added on a regular basis. With the addition of the 1940 census records, World War II draft registration cards, naturalization records, passports, and passenger lists, you don’t need a huge amount of information to begin a fascinating journey tracing your family’s roots. Ancestry is the world’s largest genealogy research tool and it is available on the public computers in the Ridgefield Library.
We are offering a program on using Ancestry for adults on Tuesday, March 24, from 1 to 2:30 led by adult services Librarian Mary Lee. It will meet in the library’s Donofrio Technology Center. Please register on our website’s Events Calendar. Get started researching your family history!
Mary Lee is the Ridgefield Library’s adult services librarian.
