The Roots Club Presents: How to Use GIS Tools in Genealogy Research

The Roost Club is offering a workshop on adding another resource to researching family history: Geographic Information Systems, or GIS.

Learn how GIS technology can help locate these places in space and time. Contact Tywanna at (434) 313-3106 or tmwhorley@co.campbell.va.us for more information.
