We affectionately call ourselves the
Ferndale Genies. We live in the far
northwest corner of Washington state in Whatcom County, mostly in cities
Bellingham and Ferndale. We meet monthly
on the third Wednesday at the Ferndale Library from 1:00 until 2:30 or 3:30.
We have Getting Started classes for
four people at a time. We cover some
genealogy basics and hands-on time to practice using familysearch.org to add
people to a tree and do basic research.
We have no fees and accept no
donations. All our services are
free. We are sponsored by the Ferndale
Library which supports us with meeting space, copies and publicity.
Our aim is to help people learn about
genealogy in a friendly open group by sharing information about local
resources, online resources, local educational events, and basic genealogy
techniques.
Our members generously help people who
are getting started or just plain stuck.
Corrections
Genealogy is a fast-changing hobby,
especially with websites and services provided.
If you find anything that has changed, links that don’t work, or any outright
errors, please, please, please let us know in a comment and we will get right
on it.
