TVGS Monthly Meeting - Monday, Aug 11, 2008

Wendy Elliott

Genealogy Class: The Genealogy Class to be held at the Temecula Public Library on Monday, Aug 11, from 5:30 to 6:30 pm will be taught by Bill Schneider who will present “Windows Basics”.

General Meeting: On Monday night, Aug 11 2008, Wendy Elliott will speak about Burned County Courthouses − Alternate Sources. At one time or another in our genealogical research all of us may encounter the problem of lost courthouse records. The most common event is fire. Sometimes the cause was a military conflict and, occasionally, there were accidental fires.

Wendy Elliott is a professor of history at Cal State Fullerton, where she teaches a variety of history courses. She is an internationally known genealogical teacher and speaker and has lectured at national conferences throughout the United States since 1984.
