Presentations will include:
- Carol Miller-Schultz: “The Gems of kinship Family Heritage Research Center” - Learn about the special collections contained at Washington County’s only full time genealogy center. You will become familiar with the family bibles, city directories, church records, rare papers and books, to name a few.

- Mary Mannix: “Western Maryland Research” - “Western Maryland” today consists of six separate counties. Many would not consider several as “western.” Develop an understanding of the region’s history, along with the sources and institutions for researching genealogy and local history.
