Marsha Allen Gold, a Utah native, raised and living in the Phoenix Valley of the Sun, will be the September 13, 2010 Meeting speaker. Knowing the history of an area is invaluable to genealogical research. Her topic will be "Using Printed County Histories". Marsha's interest in genealogy began when she visited her grandparents and cousins, heard their life's stories and spent time going through old photograph albums. Later in life, she spent one day a week writing family stories that her mother related. Marsha has spoken to several genealogical societies in the area and has taught beginning classes to the Family History Society of Arizona.
The meeting will be held at 1:30 PM, Monday, Sept 13, at the First Presbyterian Church, 12225 N. 103rd Avenue, Sun City. Attendance is open to anyone interested in pursuing family history. Bring a friend. Can't attend? Visit the website:
