I saw this in Eastman's Online Genealogy Newsletter. Sounds fascinating. Spread the word. January 09, 2006 Genealogy on PBS The U.S. Public Broadcasting System television network is airing a four part series on African American genealogy for Black History Month (February). It is called "African American Lives" and is hosted by Henry Louis Gates. Renowned genealogy expert Tony Burroughs will appear in three of the four episodes. The first two hours will air Wednesday February 1st and the second two hours will air on Wednesday, February 8th. However, PBS stations in different cities frequently air programs on different days and different times from what the network announces. Check your local listings at _http://www.pbs.org/tvschedules_ (http://www.pbs.org/tvschedules) for details.

Those who are planning your 2006 microfilm transcription projects will need to note a MAJOR increase in microfilm rental costs from the LDS Family History Library on Jan. 15th. The first rental (approximately 30 days) will be around $5.75 -- depending on handling fees charged by your local library -- with extensions costing $5.50, again depending on fees charged by your local library. That means a film borrowed on indefinite loan will cost about double its current cost. Therefore -- get to your local LDS Family History Center and order up your films now!

fyi...this is a very good site to post info on your families - as well as look for info on allied families... They came for a season, they left and went where? Why did they go and who went with them? So many questions about the migrations of our ancestors. http://www.migrations.org/index.html
