August
Meeting
On August 8, 2012, the Madison County
Genealogical Society held their regular meeting at the Hayner
Library Genealogy and Local History Section. After a few announcements from the
President, Robert Ridenour, we were treated to a tour of the new Genealogical
and Local History section. The location of the volumes and the capabilities of
the computer system were explained to the attendees.
Quite a few of the members had time to
do some research.
This was an interesting tour and generated questions and comments from the
audience.
