In celebration of the 250th anniversary of the founding of America, the Maryland Genealogical Society and Maryland Public Television (an MD Two Fifty Commission partner) are pleased to offer a special day-long, in-person workshop that bridges the gap between family archives and powerful storytelling. We will dive deep into the federal pensions and bounty land applications to find out more information about our revolutionary-era ancestors and learn the tools to turn those records into a compelling non-fiction story. While this event is FREE, advance registration is required because space is limited. See the
MGS homepage for more information and to register.
The workshop will include presentations and interactive discussion with Rebecca Whitman Koford, CG, CGL. There also will be a screening of a video presentation from Ken Burns' The American Revolution, Light breakfast refreshments and a lunch will be provided.
