Your Ancestor was a…Occupations of our Ancestors
So you've found out what your ancestor did for a living, now what?
Ancestral occupations can give clues to who our ancestors were, where
and how they lived, and most importantly, give them identity and
personality. Nancy Waters Lauer, researcher, lecturer, college
educator and award-winning author, shows us how our ancestors can live
again in families' histories through their chosen professions.
*Attached you will find two handouts used with this presentation*
"Tag, You're It; Members' Stories"
Refreshment Theme: "Death by Chocolate"
*Remember - The St. Mary's County Genealogical Society Follows The St.
Mary's County Department of Aging when the county closes buildings.*
