    3. The German Genealogy Group will hold its next monthly meeting on Thursday, November 10th at: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, The Family History Center, 160 Washington Avenue Plainview, New York. The program topic will be: “Dating Photographs Through Fashion” with presenter Beth Chamberlain, a volunteer at Old Bethpage Village Restoration, a member of the Costume Society of America and by profession, a librarian at Touro Law Center. Have you ever wondered who is looking back at you when you look at an old photograph? The clothes they wear along with their accessories and hair styles all give us clues about when they lived and even some about their lives. Learn to decode some of the clues so you can start putting names to the faces. We'll look at images from the earliest days of photography through WWI. An Orientation session for beginners and newcomers will be held at 7 PM and the regular meeting will start at 7:30. Among the many benefits of GGG membership are a newsletter published ten times a year, a database of surnames, a free translation service, a book and CD lending library, interesting guest speakers at the meetings, mentoring, a start-up kit of helpful information and much more. We welcome all who are interested in researching their Germanic origins. There is no fee for guests and all are welcome.
