Saturday, September 5
OGS Writers Group (Special Interest Groups)
2:00 pm OGS Library, 955 Oak Alley, Eugene, OR
The OGS Writers’ Group meets on the first Saturday of the month at 2:00 pm. We’ll begin in the OGS library and move to the annex if we need more space.
All writers and wannabe-writers are invited. There is no agenda for this meeting; it will be a gathering of people who like to write about family history—whether for publication, for sharing with family members, or simply for their own satisfaction. If you've already done some genealogical writing, please bring that along to share. Seeing other people’s writing can spark ideas for our own writing.
If you have questions and want to talk to me before the meeting, you can text me at 541.513.3918 or email christina.b.armstrong@gmail.com.
I hope to see you there!

Stuck on a brick wall? Perhaps you’re unsure where to look next or how to find the records you need. We will provide suggestions for you. We will not conduct the research for you, but you can use our ideas as a starting point and conduct further research in resources that may help solve your research dilemma.
Feel free to bring your laptop and any relevant paper research with you.
Genealogy Q & A meets on the second Sunday in the odd months in the Annex. Everyone is welcome to bring their questions, brick walls, or requests for guidance researching their family history. If you would like more information, you can contact Linda A. or Dawn.
