The Naugatuck Valley Genealogy Club will meet at the Prospect Public Library, 17 Center Street, Prospect, and on Zoom on Saturday, October 14, at 10:30 a.m. Following a brief business meeting, Jeanette Sheliga will present “Getting Acquainted with the Genealogical Proof Standard.”  

Having a research plan is always a good idea when researching your ancestors. This presentation will introduce the audience to the Genealogical Proof Standard and demonstrate how following through the steps will help you solve your genealogy research questions and hopefully bust through some of the brick walls that you might have.

Jeanette Sheliga of Jeanette’s Genealogy lives in Lockport, NY and has been researching her family tree since 2002 and lecturing since 2011. She has had the privilege to speak for societies and libraries locally and virtually all over the world. Jeanette is the President of the Virtual Genealogical Association (VGA) and holds many offices in her local societies.

The public is invited and there is no charge for the meeting. Members and guests may attend in-person at the Prospect Library. Also, members will receive Zoom invitations and non-members can request an invitation by emailing their full name, address, telephone number and email address to nvgcguestz2020@gmail.com no later than October 12.
