Meeting May 8, 2018


Report of the meeting of the La Porte County Indiana Genealogical Society
8 May 2018
Park Department Headquarters, La Porte
The meeting was called to order at 7:02 PM by the president, Ron Hyer.  Seventeen members were present. There was a short business meeting, with a report on the Allen County Public Library trip on April 18, 2018 from Patricia Gruse Harris.
Alan Zeller presented a map to guide the members and guests to Lambs Chapel Cemetery.  The June meeting will be a tour of this cemetery, located on Fail Road one mile north of US 20. The tour will be on  June 12, 2018, at 6 PM CDT. After the tour, the society plans an informal gathering at the Little Tavern, 210 W Michigan Street  in Rolling Prairie. Visitors are welcome at both phases of the tour.

After a recess for refreshments,  some members spoke about the research lessons which they had learned during the recent trip to Allen County Public Library. A discussion followed about the reason for this extensive collection and some of the lesser-known services which it offers.

Keep up with the society on Facebook, "La Porte County Genealogical Society".
