Welcome to The North Hills Genealogists

“Hiding Behind their Skirts:
Finding Women in Records”
May 20th

At our May 20th meeting Elissa Scalise Powell, CG, will cover the topic of researching the female side of our families, and the unique challenges encountered. This is the latest in our series of meetings following the “Getting Started” theme:  MORE INFORMATION HERE

“TIP TIME”
PRIOR TO EACH MEETING

Prior to be “official” start of each meeting, beginning at 6:45, we are now holding an informal session where those present can toss out questions to the collective group. This is proving to be an excellent way to find new ideas for breaking through those “brick walls” that pop up in our research efforts.

ABOUT  THE  NORTH  HILLS GENEALOGISTS

The North Hills Genealogists is a group of people interested in genealogy and in researching their family histories. Located in the North Hills of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania our members have common interests in the geographic areas north of the city. Many of the our members also live in that area.

NORTH  HILLS  GENEALOGISTS  ACTIVITIES

Meetings are on the third Tuesday of every month, except December, starting at 7:00 P.M. Our meetings are held at Northland Library. More details and directions are on the CALENDAR page. All meetings are free and open to the public. For more information email: INFO@NorthHillsGenealogists.org

The monthly meetings each feature a guest speaker addressing the group on a subject related to genealogy. A “roundtable discussion” is periodically scheduled instead of a lecture, giving each person a chance to ask questions or tell of a great find. We also have a “freebie” table of interesting genealogical pamphlets and booklets and a “for sale” table with genealogical bargains.

We arrange field trips to repositories and locations such as Washington DC, the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh, Western Reserve Library in Cleveland, Ohio, and the West Virginia University Library in Morgantown, WV.

We publish a monthly newsletter (except for December or July), which is indexed in PERSI. It includes articles to help you find resources, tips on how to do better genealogy, announcements of upcoming genealogical events, and both member and non-member queries.

Dues are $15 per year (August through the following July). Back issues of the newsletter will be sent to mid-year newcomers.
