Program Description

Event Details

This hybrid program will be offered both virtually and in-person. 

Program formats are subject to change. Registrants will receive an email notifying them of any such changes.

Patrons are currently required to wear a mask in the library regardless of vaccination status.

While today’s family records are most often printed or computer generated, records of the past were handwritten.  As handwriting styles have changed over time, and also differ from region to region, reading these records can be a challenge.  This presentation will offer ideas for “breaking through” the handwriting barrier, including online and printed resources.
