Cuyahoga Valley Genealogical Society

The Cuyahoga Valley Genealogical Society will hold its monthly meeting on Monday, April 7 at 7 p.m. Members and interested public are invited to attend in the Willow Room of the Independence Civic Center, 6363 Selig Blvd. in Independence. The topic will be “From Documents to Sentences to Stories: Rebuilding Family Stories” presented by Sunny Morton. Turning genealogy research discoveries into meaningful stories can be challenging. Follow the recreation of one family’s story using hands-on, step-by-step, try-this-now story building strategies. Turn a single record discovery into a simple paragraph, then a paragraph into a story by looking for the “plot” and other interesting elements that make up the most interesting stories. Coffee and refreshments will be served. For additional information contact Cuyahogavalleygensociety@gmail.com.
