Crossing the Pond:  Finding Your Ancestor's European Origins
 
Tuesday, June 11, 7:15 p.m.
Eastridge Presbyterian Church
1135 Eastridge Drive, Lincoln
 
Join Phyllis Ericson as she shares successful strategies for "crossing the pond".  Get ideas for finding that elusive information to locate your ancestor's country and village of origin.
We'll sort through U.S. and foreign records that can lead us to the other side of the pond and help us locate our ancestor's homeland - their country,region and maybe even their town of origin.
Armed with this information may take your research back even more generations in the "old country".
 
Plan to spend a delightful evening with other passionate genealogists.
