7/29	Genealogy Program at OK History Center Pat McFall, First Vice Regent of Oklahoma Daughters of American Revolution (DAR), will present the program at next Monday's regular meeting of the Oklahoma Genealogical Society (OGS) in the Oklahoma History Center at 6:00 pm. The DAR, in the last several years, digitized thousands of records and many of them are newly available on the public web site. The records contain information copied from member’s applications. Pat McFall will demonstrate how to access this web site, how to order records and research from the DAR, and how to use the records. Also Pat will present some well-researched “brick wall” strategies that may assist researchers. The D.A.N.C.E. will play a part in these strategies. What is DANCE? Come to our program and learn. Ms. McFall has traveled to many states and Washington D.C. doing research. She finds it hard to enjoy travel without looking at records in court houses, libraries and out of the way record repositories. She is a member of Samuel King Chapter of DAR in Edmond and often presents programs and workshops on genealogy research leading to membership in DAR. She had led tours for genealogical research to repositories in London, Ireland, Wales & Scotland. Come and hear her speak at the OGS meeting which is free for members and open to the public. Non-members are encouraged to donate three dollars. Members offer free genealogical assistance in the Research Library at 5:00 pm and the library remains open until 7:45 pm on OGS meeting nights. The Oklahoma History Center (OHS) is located just across 23rd Street from the Governor’s mansion. See the map online at www.okhistorycenter.org and click on visitor information.
