"Lunch with a Signer"
At our May meeting, we are pleased to welcome two local middle school students, Aylis and Hayden, who will share their award-winning essays from a contest sponsored by Pleasantview Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution. Each student chose a signer of the Declaration of Independence for a unique reason--one because she is a descendant of the signer, and the other in recognition of the signer's many honorable contributions. Join us to discover which signers inspired these students and to hear their remarkable work. We also hope to have a surprise speaker round out our program.
Volunteers are available Wednesdays from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. at Hayden Library to assist members and visitors with genealogical research. We now have a scanner that utilizes flattening curved book page technology allowing it to replicate the individual flat pages of a curved book. The scanner is only available for use with a KCGS volunteer on Wednesday afternoons. Click here for flyer.
Kootenai County research is available for a small fee for those out of the area. Please see our Research Help page for more information.
