Reminder to all: The Louisiana Genealogical & Historical Society is holding its Annual Seminar on Saturday, April 26th at the Embassy Suites in Baton Rouge.

Claire is giving three presentations: Assumptions in Genealogical Research: Your Own Worst Enemy NARA Records and Information at Your Fingertips -- How to Take Advantage of NARA Resources From Home Concepts of Civil Law and Genealogical Records Augusta will speak on The French Colony of Saint-Domingue There will be numerous book vendors and societies on hand to display their publications. Claitor's Publishing, which recently purchased Hebert Publications, will be among them.
