History & Genealogy Hangout

Calling all history buffs, newspaper-savers, local legends, family-tree enthusiasts, past-decade diggers, novice chroniclers, and archive aficionados!

MMPL is hosting a monthly gathering for those who love to dig into the past. Whether you're unearthing some family roots or are seeking some general insight into the region's history, this casual hangout is a great opportunity to meet up with others who have an affinity for the days of yore. 

Bring your own newspaper clippings, photos, yearbooks, scrapbooks, keepsakes, or ask one of the MMPL folks leading the hangout to show you our local history collection! Exchange tips for digital detective-work. Get acquainted with your heritage. Maybe even connect with a long-lost-relative-many-times-removed.

These monthly History and Genealogy Hangouts are your informal opportunity to browse historical materials, find research assistance, and enjoy the fellowship of like-minded folk. Bring your own laptop or tablet. Bring your grandma. Bring some curiosity!
