Join us for the next
Wake County Genealogical Society
"Street Genealogy". See the five-minute free video at the National Genealogical Society YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zD8P6Q_93ps&list=PLPuFl1BJIibPkE9BtKL-R_txCT5ZNDM4W&index=3
The original Street Genealogy event took place on a busy sidewalk. We will be inside the community center to help anyone who is curious about their family history.
We are looking for 10 volunteers...
...who can bring their laptops and sit at inside tables and help people get started with genealogy by looking up their family online. For example, finding their family in the 1950 census. People can take a screen shot using their phone camera. Depending on demand, volunteers may spend 5 to 10 minutes per visitor.
If the Wi-Fi is not working, we'll have paper pedigree charts and the volunteers can work with people to show them how to fill out the chart.
We need more volunteers for these spots:
We also need volunteers to sit at our table of handouts to explain and share our handouts on local resources (free Ancestry Library Edition at all Wake Co Public libraries, NC Archives, etc.), WCGS, genealogy classes, upcoming events, etc.
We also need volunteers at 9:15 to help set up the tables
& chairs & signs.
Volunteers are needed for closing up at noon (fold the
tables, stack the chairs, and get the signs).
When you watch the video, you can see how much fun this event will be.
Please sign up for a volunteer slot to help us make this a
successful event!
