At a recent MCGS meeting I sat next to someone with ancestors in Eastern Europe. I was surprised to learn that the problems for genealogists are not just language but name changes, restricted access to records, etc. To quote from the January newsletter, "Border changes in Europe affected not only the map of Europe, but also the records in which genealogists depend upon to document their ancestors' lives." Whether or not your current research involves Eastern Europe, you will find Stephen Danko's presentation interesting and informative for genealogists in general. While you are at it, you can help defray MCGS expenses by bringing your recyclable cans and bottles. Drop them off outside on your way into the LDS church building by 7:30. Bill Bryant MCGS Secretary
