On Saturday 22 November from 9am to 12.30pm, the Cooroy-Noosa Genealogical and Historical Research Group is holding an open day and Christmas Market. Visitors will be welcome at the Heritage Centre, 17 Emerald Street Cooroy.
A selection of potted plants at bargain prices, hand crafted jams, chutneys and relishes lovingly made by our members, and a variety of Christmas gifts will be on sale.
Volunteers will be available to answer questions about the Cooroy-Noosa Genealogical & Historical Research Group. Take the opportunity to see firsthand the resources available at the centre to undertake your ancestry and family history research.
If you are interested in digitising your old family photos, we invite you to bring a print along for a free demonstration of the centres digitising facilities.
The organisation was formed in 1996 by a group of friends who shared a keen interest in family history and that small group has now grown to over 130 members. In January 2016 the group moved into their purpose-built Heritage Centre that contains a modern research area, meeting space and family history research library that is open for the community to use.
The Heritage Centre is open to the public from 9.30am to 1pm on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. You can drop in for a free session. Membership provides great value for money access to the research facility and library as well as special functions and expert assistance.
Call 3129 0356 in the above office hours. More information can be found on the website www.genealogy-noosa.org.au
