The Jewish Genealogical Society of Montreal
Sunday Morning Family Tree Workshop
SUNDAY, OCTOBER 18, 2009 FROM 10:00 A.M.- NOON
And on the following Sundays: Nov. 1, Dec. 6, and Jan. 10

The popular Sunday Morning Family Tree workshops are an opportunity for beginners to get "one-on-one" help with family history questions. Jewish family history does not have to be a mystery. We all leave a paper trail that can unravel the story of our families for many generations, across the ocean and into the smallest of "shtetls". Join with other Montrealers in the fascinating quest for your roots.

Visit the JGS website at www.jgs-montreal.org. For further information, please call: Stanley Diamond, President (514) 484-0100; Merle Kastner, Programming (514) 735-4739; Jerry Zell, Membership (514) 486-2171.
