🔵 ALL ABOUT THAT PLACE
Starting this week, in celebration of the 10th Anniversary of the Society for One-Place Studies,  the Society of Genealogists, the Society for One-Place Studies, Genealogy Stories, and the British Association for Local History have put together what promises to be fun, educational and inspirational one-of-a-kind event: “All About That Place” is a FREE, one-place study challenge, September 22 to October 1. There will be bite-sized recorded talks from a WIDE variety of speakers on both Facebook and YouTube, challenges  to help you explore your own local history, a free downloadable workbook, and prize drawings too! The goal is to inspire you to want to learn more about the local history of your ancestors and maybe start a one-place study yourself. Full details of this FREE event here.
