The theme for this year's Jamboree is "Golden Memories - Discovering Your
Family's History." The list of speakers includes many of the most skilled,
effective lecturers in genealogy today, and their classes are guaranteed to
help you solve even the most stubborn ancestral mysteries. You'll find
classes for you, regardless of your experience level. Special emphasis on
European research means you'll find classes on Irish, English, Swedish,
Scottish, Irish, Welsh, research, as well as African American, Russian and
Jewish research.
