Livingston County Genealogical Society holding meeting on Feb. 6th in Howell
The Livingston County Genealogical Society will hold an in-person meeting on Thursday, Feb. 6th at 7pm at the First United Methodist Church in Howell, 1230 Bower Street. We will also offer a zoom link to this meeting; the link may be found on our Facebook page the week of the meeting. All are welcome.
The guest speaker is James Jackson who will talk about “Fold 3: Military Records”. With over 500 milllion images, there are records of soldiers serving in every conflict from the American Revolution to the Irag, Afghanistan and Persian Gulf Wars. But there is much more than just military records on Fold3 and much of it is available from home for free.
Jackson speaks regionally and nationally on many topics, many of them military related. He has served as president of the Detroit Society for Genealogical Research, the Oakland County Genealogical Society and the Calhoun County Genealogical Society. He has been the Index Editor of the DSGR Magazine since 1994 and is past-Commander of Camp 22 (Battle Creek, MI) Sons of Union Veterans. In 2006, he was awarded the Lucy Mary Kellogg Award by the Michigan Genealogical Society.
