AGS Monthly Meeting and Program: New England Historic Genealogical Society – American Ancestors.org

Join us for a short business meeting, followed by a presentation by Christine Cohen

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: Established in 1845, the New England Historical Genealogical Society is a leading research source and the largest Society of its kind in the world. Their website www.AmericanAncestors.org provides access to more than 1.4 billion records from twenty-two countries covering the United States, the British Isles, and continental Europe. Plus the largest searchable collection of published genealogical research journals and magazines, and the largest collection of U.S Catholic records online.

Speaker Bio: Christine’s interest in genealogy began in 1977 with the airing of the TV mini-series “Roots”. Her enthusiasm was piqued when she was given a typed pedigree chart, commissioned by her maternal grandfather, of their Dutch heritage from the New Netherlands in the 1650’s. Christine is a native Californian, and a graduate of UCLA in Political Science. She is retired and pursues her genealogy journey full time. 

Christine is a long-time member of the Whittier Area Genealogical Society (WAGS) and currently is the Program Director. She is a member of the Tualatin Chapter of the DAR, the Society of Daughters of Holland Dames, APG and the society delegate for NGS.
