Wakecogen Meet-up - Genealogy Book Exchange at Laurel Hills on June 20 10am-Noon

Do you have any genealogy books that you don’t use and would like to go to a good home? Are you looking for genealogy books? Let’s get together and swap books! Afterwards, we’ll go to lunch (Dutch treat). This is a fund-raiser / meet-up / recycling event.
