Join a new interest group at GFO - a Genealogy Book Group. Share your thoughts in a discussion of engaging and entertaining books written by people exploring their family history, discovering the truth of their research, and drama of it all. Our first meeting will be Saturday, April 13, 11:45 - 12:45 pm. We can decide how often we want to meet (once a month, every other month, or skip the summer), discuss guidelines, and the fun part, choose the books. Here are some books we might consider for discussion: *The Fiddler on Pantico Run: An African Warrior, His White Descendants, Our Search for Family*, by Joe Mozingo *Reunion, A Search of Ancestors*, by Ryan Littrell *They Came in Ships: Finding Your Immigrant Ancestor’s Arrival Record*, by John Philip Colletta *Roxanna Britton: a Biographical Novel*, by Shirley S Allen *The Quack’s Daughter*, by Greta Nettleton *The Monster in the Closet: A Bumpy Ride Down the Genealogy Trail*, by Judith Harris *Only a Few Bones: A True Account of the Rolling Fork Tragedy and Its Aftermath*, by John Phillip Colletta *The Journey Takers*, by Leslie Albrecht Huber I've had a chance to read *The Fiddler on Pantico Run* and hear the author discuss his book on NPR. Blond Joe Mozingo grew up in southern California surfing to discover he - and many other white and African American Mozingo families - descend from a slave. Mozingo is an award winning investigative reporter. It's a book not only of his genealogical history but his thoughts on race in this county and family history as a basic piece of identity. See you the 13th, Bonnie Randolph
