"Hispanics and the Formation of the American People"
Oct 1-2, D.C.
Attached is the latest schedule of workshops and
speakers for the Hispanic/Latino heritage conference
to be held at the National Archives in Washington,
D.C., Oct 1-2. I have been assisting Sam Anthony,
Director of Program Lectures in setting it up.
Although the Archives have been in existence for 70
years (since 1934), this is the first conference ever
held at the National Archives dedicated specifically
to Hispanic family history. Most other minority and
special interest groups have at some time had a
conference which included their research interest, but
Hispanic researchers have not been served. I think the
event deserves special recognition. Sam has really be
our champion in getting the conference approved.
Please help get the word out, especially among friends
that live in the D.C. area.
We would like the efforts of all Hispanic genealogy
and historical societies to be recognized. Outside of
the theater is a long, extremely wide (about 30 feet)
hallway where tables will be set up for organizations
to distribute brochures, flyers and/or displays.
Please contact Sam Anthony indicating what your
organization will be mailing. Materials will not be
returned. Organization's brochures will be kept for
the benefit of future researchers visiting the
Archives. Posters, as appropriate, will most likely
be distributed to local schools.
