Family Historians Lost in Black Sheep at SAG Seminar

Wow! What a weekend! We are still buzzing from the passion and enthusiasm everyone showed for family history research. We had a great time welcoming 75 delegates to Orange from Sydney, across the Central West and Queensland. We also thank the Society of Australian Genealogists and Central West Libraries for organising such a fantastic line up of expert speakers. Pictured above is Society of Australian Genealogists vice president Martyn Killion with Central West Libraries Services Manager Jan Richards. Martyn spoke at the seminar about how the Sydney Benevolent Asylum helped out homeless, destitute, pregnant and poor ancestors while Jan reminded us about the amazing range of information available in local libraries from newspapers to photographs, books with local details, newsletters and even Environmental Impact Statements.
