Indiana Historical Society to Host Genealogy Research Workshops Indianapolis - The Indiana Historical Society will host two genealogy workshops on August 24 and 25 from 9 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. Betty Warren, president of the Indiana Genealogical Society, will present the programs on unlocking your family's past. Warren will discuss the reference tools needed for family history research and a reference librarian from the Indiana State Library Genealogy Division will be on-hand to review specific resources available in the genealogy division. The workshop will also incorporate discussions on records and documents including family sources, census, cemetery and church records. The same material will be presented both days so participants should choose to attend only one day. The cost to attend the workshop is $30; $20 for IHS members; $15 for students aged eighteen or younger. Seating is limited and early registration is encouraged. Registration is limited and the registration deadline is June 29.
