Recreating Your Ancestor’s World by Mary Kircher Roddy.

Realtors always talk about location, but genealogists all know that CONTEXT is where it’s at! Being able to visualize your ancestor’s world gives your dates and places a vibrancy they would lack otherwise. Seattle-based Mary Kircher Roddy will show us how maps, city directories, census records and more can help us get to know our forebears.

Here is the speaker’s HANDOUT.

Kick back and relax this summer. We’ll be taking a break from WAGS programs in August. Find something cool to drink and a cool place to be. Nothing to read? Stop by the WAGS Library (Tuesdays and Saturdays from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m.) and see what you can find in our checkout section. We’d enjoy visiting with you.

Get refreshed and ready for a new “school year,” when our monthly programs resume in September–second Mondays at 2:00 p.m.

July is the month when your WAGS Board does its strategic planning. This year, we don’t want it to be a board-only thing–we’re inviting you to join us and give us your valuable observations, thoughts, and ideas. What can WAGS do differently–or do more of–or less of!–to help you in your research? We’re looking forward to getting your input!

Monday, July 10 at 2:00 p.m.

In-person at the Douglas PUD Auditorium, and via Zoom.

Get Acquainted with John Kendrick Chapter, NSDAR, with Brenda Brady, Vice Regent

Let’s get to know our good neighbors, the ladies at John Kendrick Chapter of the DAR, here in Wenatchee. They are involved in many activities that enhance and preserve our American heritage. We’ll hear about all these, get all the current information about applications and joining, and find out the things they’re doing to encourage youth (starting an ROTC in Cashmere and encouraging the local chapter of Children of the American Revolution, for starters).

This will be a hybrid meeting–the in-person meeting and our live speaker will be at the Douglas PUD Auditorium, 1151 Valley Mall Parkway, East Wenatchee.

This meeting does not have a general information handout. However, if you’re serious about exploring membership in the DAR, HERE is the six-page application form. You’ll also find good information at dar.org/national-society/become-member/membership-interest-form, and dar.org/national-society/become-member/how-join.
