To the Editor:

There is nothing more exciting and rewarding than doing your family genealogy.  While the TV program traces the stories of famous personalities, our family histories are just as interesting and important to know.

The Genealogy Club in Newtown has meetings on the second Wednesday of the month at 7 pm at the C.H. Booth Library at 25 Main Street. I invite you to come and hear interesting speakers who can offer clues to getting your started or helping you with your ongoing research.

Our year begins with an interesting lecture on German genealogy on Wednesday September 11.  As an added benefit to our members we are offering a Help Desk one half hour before the meetings to give individual help in pointing you in the right direction or suggesting web sites.

Please join us.  Remember that the past is the present that we give to the future!
