July 25th Program: Gena Ortega on "Remember the Ladies"

The July program meeting of the Chula Vista Genealogical Society is Wednesday, 25 July, from 12 Noon to 2 p.m. at the Chula Vista Civic Center Branch Library (365 F Street) in the Auditorium. 

The speaker presentation will be “Remember the Ladies” by Gena Philibert Ortega.

"Remember the Ladies:"  Do you have a female ancestor that has become your brick wall? Researching women can be difficult when you factor in surname changes and lack of documentation. Women are different and so are the research techniques that need to be used to find them. Join us as we discuss resources and methodology to help you research your ancestress.
