The program speaker will be Randy Seaver on the topic "Genealogy Is Fun! Seriously!"
The presentation summary:
Believe it or not, there is a lot of humor in genealogy research – names, epitaphs, wills, cartoons, videos, sayings, poetry, apparel, wisdom, genealogisms, etc. This presentation takes a light-hearted look at the best of the genealogy humor sites and humorous entries in genealogical databases. In addition, attendees will play a special game during the presentation - the winner gets to take Randy out for dessert!
