CARSON GRAHAM COURSE

Learn how to
start tracing
your ancestors

Many people would like to
begin genealogical record
keeping but are deterred
from starting because they
do not know just how to
proceed.

To resolve the puzzle of
their ancestors’ genealogy
and background they must
resort not only to vital
statistics records, but use
numerous other finding aids.
Somewhere, some _ in-
formation remains about
almost every individual who
ever lived during the last 300
years.

You may = share the
misconception that archives
are irrevelant to your daily
life. However, many ar-
chives provide suitable
research services and
facilities to make their
material available to the
public. Their microfilms
may be borrowed through
the inter-library loan system.
Reproductions .of archival
material may be obtained at
reasonable rates.

be overlooked as a source of
information on genealogy.
Remember, an ancestor who
lived a distance of thousands
of miles away. some hun-
dreds of years ago, may well
be mentioned in the local
history of that urea.

Researching family history
will generate excitement and
pleasure, a feeling of ac-
complishment will prevail,
when ancestors come to life
and are no longer just names
in some dusty corer of the
archives.

Canada’s heritage is drawn
from many ethno-cultural
elements. The upcoming
workshop “Roots - Trace
Your Family Tree”, to be
given at Carson Graham
Secondary’School, October
4, 1980, is set up to readily
