Our January 2021 program speaker is genealogy national-speaker Thomas MacEntee. The program is titled: City Directories: No Town Too Small, No Clue Too Little and will be on Saturday, January 30th, 2021 at 10:30am EST.

Thomas gave a free webinar this morning about Restarting Your Genealogy Research that I had the pleasure to attend. He shared ideas and answered questions from the 400+ zoom attendees.
