Family History Workshop Buzzes with Excitement

The Local Studies Room was buzzing with people keen to learn more about researching family history when Orange Family History Group and Orange City Library hosted its Family History Australian Records Workshop during Library and Information Week. It was a fantastic atmosphere as people had brought in their problem research questions and we set out to help them. There were many research breakthroughs during the workshop. Orange Family History Group members were on hand to assist people with their enquiries and took everyone through simple steps to help trace their ancestors. It was exciting to watch people discover information they had not been able to find out before. The evening event also renewed enthusiasm for family history research for several people. Group members were also able to offer alternative ways to search the internet when other avenues had been exhausted. It was a great night and we thank everyone for coming along.
