More than Daughters: Using the DAR Genealogical Research System (Monthly Meetings)
7:00 pm to 8:30 pm Round Rock Public Library
The DAR Genealogical Research System (GRS) is a free resource provided by the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) to aid general genealogical research and to assist with the DAR membership process. The GRS is a collection of databases that provide access to the many materials amassed by the DAR since its founding in 1890. In addition, the DAR’s Genealogical Records Committee Reports began in 1913 and continue to arrive every year. The information in these 20,000 typescript volumes is predominately Bible records and cemetery record transcriptions along with many other types of transcribed or abstracted genealogical sources. This presentation will demonstrate how to access these resources and use them in your personal genealogical research.

Strategies for Breaking Down Brick Walls (Beginning Genealogy Workshop)
9:30 am to 11:00 am Round Rock Public Library
A brick wall is a place where we are stuck in our research for a particular ancestor. How do we get past these brick walls to keep our research going? This presentation will discuss reviewing what we know and how we know it. Then we look at strategies to help us like research logs, timelines, records to search, FAN and Cluster research, and proof arguments to bust through these struggles in our research.
