March Workshop in Toronto – Finding Your Great War Ancestors
Registration is now open for what may be the most authoritative Great War workshop during your genealogical lifetime! Don’t miss Finding Your Great War Ancestors, a packed full-day workshop to be held in March 2012 in Toronto, co-sponsored by the Toronto Branch of the Ontario Genealogical Society and the Canadiana Department of North York Central Library. Choose one of three concurrent lecture streams – British Research, Canadian Research and “Case Studies and Curios” – or mix and match the topics that interest you the most. Learn from some of the world’s leading Great War experts, including Simon Fowler, one of Britain’s top family history teachers, writers and researchers, and Canadian War Museum historian and author Tim Cook. Discover new resources and practical research strategies, find out about intriguing projects now underway, experience poignant and sometimes shocking stories, and gain new perspectives on the “war to end war”.
Where: North York Memorial Community Hall, 5110 Yonge Street, Toronto (at North York Centre subway station)
When: Saturday 31 March 2012
Early registration rates apply until 22 February 2012, and special discounts are available for OGS members. For full program details, speaker biographies and registration information, visit www.torontofamilyhistory.org/GreatWarWorkshop2012.html.
Please let me know if you would have an opportunity to display copies of the brochure for this workshop – if so, I would be happy to either mail you a package of brochures in paper format or send you the file in electronic format.
Many thanks for helping to spread the word about our family history activities.
