The next program meeting of the Chula Vista Genealogical Society will be on Wednesday, 30 November at 12 noon in the Auditorium at the Chula Vista Civic Center Branch Library in downtown Chula Vista (365 F Street). Please enter through the Conference Room (in the east hallway) in order to register your presence, pick up any handouts, and have a snack.
The program will feature Georgie Stillman, ASA, presenting an “Heirloom Discovery
Day.” Georgie will evaluate, provide some historical background and
estimate a value of family heirlooms brought in by CVGS members. Her expertise
is in evaluating and appraising silver, china, glass ware, furniture, artworks,
quilts and samplers.
