Open Day at Cooroy Heritage Centre

The public is invited to an Open Day at the Cooroy Heritage Centre on Saturday 24 April.

There will be displays focusing on Anzac history and the opportunity to see how you can do family history research.

The group is having a membership special offered at 14 months for a one-year subscription.

Experienced researchers will help you learn the ropes to use the resources such as Trove Online which has more than 8 million digital images from 50 years of Australian newspapers.

Family history research can also involve using online sources such as Ancestry.com, TheGenealogist.com and other databases.

If you will be having your DNA processed, this is the next step in finding your family heritage.

There will be refreshments available for morning tea and a table of homemade Gene-jams and chutneys for sale.

The Heritage centre is located at 17 Emerald St Cooroy. Doors will open 9.30am till 12.30pm. For more information call 07 31290356.
