We are delighted to announce to ALL WAGS members regardless of your location,  may attend online our regularly scheduled meetings via Zoom, except in June and September.

VISITORS are welcome to attend all meetings.

The Watauga Association of Genealogists will hold its next monthly meeting via Zoom on Tuesday, March 5, 2024 at 7:00pm.

TOPIC:   “An Irish Genealogy Secret” presented by Ciara Chivers, Shamrock Roots

An introduction to an under-used source for Irish genealogy: the Journal of the Association for the Preservation of the Memorials of the Dead in Ireland (also known as the Journal of the Irish Memorials Association).

These Journals contain a wealth of information that can be useful to genealogists doing Irish research and they are accessible online for free.  In spite of this, many researchers are not aware of them or do not make best use of them.  In this presentation you will discover the potential value of the Journals, learn how to access and navigate them, and pick up tips for getting the most out of them.
