One of the people helping to promote this new approach to Genealogy Conferences is Cindy Hofmeister, a professional genealogist. Cindy moved to Lafayette, LA a year ago from Salt Lake City and is concerned with making the residents of Lafayette aware of the resources available through the Family History Center in our area. She has been helpful in teaching and updating some of our practices here in our local genealogy society.
