Senior populations in many of these southern areas are very isolated and the seniors living there do not speak easily with outsiders and so getting their family stories for local district and state collections is darn near impossible. We hope with our project to inspire other groups of professional genealogists to donate their time researching genealogies within populations that otherwise would not be able to afford large amounts of genealogical research assistance. Our eight-workshop series starting in August will educate and inform Library patrons on local, state and federal records research. For more information on the Lobeco Library Branch Workshop contact Gina Molter at 843-255-6475 or send an email to gmolter@bcgov.net.
