Genalogical Societies

First of all - WOW!! 134 messages, and it is only the 8th of March!
So much to read - and all of it very interesting. Thanks.

Now - subject question: What genealogical or historical societies do
you belong to?
Since I live in Fairfax County, Virginia, I belong to the Fairfax
Genealogical Society - a very active group. (However, I think I am
the only member who researches in Mexico - ay, tan solita). Their
website is: http://www.fxgs.org
There were a lot of interesting items in the most recent newsletter -
and I thought I would share a few - especially if you should happen
to be in the area for any of these meetings/gatherings.
March 25, 2006: Fairfax Gen. Soc. Annual Conference (see website for
details).
April 27, 2006: (Monthly meeting) DNA Testing for Genealogists
(speaker: Linda Jonas) - check the website (above)for details.

Next year, 2007, the state of Virginia will celebrate in 500th
anniversary of settlement (Jamestown, 1607). NGS (National
Genealogical Society) will hold its Conference in the States, May 16-
19, 2007, in Richmond, VA. (www.ngsgenealogy.org)

That's all for now - y'all take care.
