At our first session in the U3A Meeting Room on Thursday 25 February from 1 to 4 pm we will be following a new ‘Covid friendly’ format. We will begin with a presentation followed by time to apply what was discussed; a BYO tea/coffee break to enjoy chatting with others who are interested in family history; a writing component in which stories are shared on a theme set for the session; and a chance to problem solve and work on our family trees.
The topic to bring along for the writing component in our first session is ‘Family Trait’ – write between 150 and 400 words on a family trait you appeared to have inherited. What is it, who do you seem to have inherited it or share it with. How did it play out in their life? In your life?
During the first session we will learn to draw genograms to help to explain where the people mentioned in our stories fit into our family tree.
