Folks, The St. Louis Genealogical Society's Annual Fair on 8 April was quite successful. As I noted in a previous post to this list, the Society had all the lectures audio taped onto CDs. The quality turned out to be very good. So, if you missed the Fair, this is an opportunity to here some of the talks. Those CDs will remain available for purchase through 30 June only. The webpage http://www.stlgs.org/fairLectures.htm lists the lectures. From that page, you can click on Schedule and Speakers to find out about them, or click on CD Sales to purchase the CDs online. There was one last minute substitution. Ann Carter Fleming, CG, CGL, replaced Ed Murray for the "Beginning Genealogy" presentation. Bob Emnett Research Director St. Louis Genealogical Society
