The Genealogy Club of Newtown via Zoom Online
Join us for this fascinating presentation by the Genealogy Club of Newtown!
Our speaker: LISA GORRELL
Did Your Ancestor Attend Church? Researching in Religious Records Church records can provide names, dates, and relationships about your ancestors. Many of the records from churches and religious organizations predate civil records which makes these records a rich source of information about our families. This presentation will cover baptism, marriage, burial, and membership records, and how to research a family member who had a religious occupation.
Lisa S. Gorrell is a Certified Genealogist®. She has served on boards of several genealogical
societies and is currently the recording secretary with the Contra Costa County Historical Society,
where she volunteers at their archives. She enjoys giving genealogy presentations and writing about her family on two blogs: Mam-ma's Southern Family and My Trails into the Past. She has written a three-generation family history about her husband's Swedish ancestors.
