Frederick County Genealogical Society will hold its regularly scheduled lecture on Saturday April 12th, 2003, on resource that is of value to any family or general historian. A wealth of information is available in the Library of the Daughters of American Revolution in Washington, DC, and includes more than just the names and dates. This reference library has invaluable information from the colonial period to early 19th century and beyond. Our speaker is a frequent user of this library with intimate knowledge of its features and inner workings. We are honored to have the opportunity to hear this lecture. In addition to being a noted professional genealogist, Rev. Pyne is the Registrar General of the Descendants of the Signers of the Declaration of Independence and Registrar of the Maryland State Society of the Sons of the American Revolution. He is the author of the definitive and massive work on the descendants of the signers, has made many presentations and taught classes in genealogy, and is considered a vibrant and interesting speaker. The Rev. Frederick W. Pyne, a Board Certified Genealogist, will be presenting an open talk and discussion of genealogical research at the Daughters of American Revolution's Research Library in Washington, DC.  Other research methodologies will also be discussed. The presentation, including overhead slides, is designed to be open discussion and questions. Since the FRECOGS members will be going to the DAR Library within a few weeks this should be a most interesting session and everyone is encouraged to attend, bring your questions, and seek answers! As with most of the FRECOGS regular monthly meeting lectures, attendance is free and open to the public regardless of where your ancestors have resided.
