Please join us virtually on Sunday March 26 at 1:30PM for Alec Ferretti's presentation, "The Mess of NYC vital records."
Zoom information will be sent out midweek, the WEEK BEFORE THE MEETING, to JGSMD members.
Learn what vital records are available in New York State and New York City - and what advocacy work is being done to make more available!
Alec Ferretti is a New-York-City-based professional genealogist, who works for the Wells Fargo Family & Business History Center, researching family histories for high net worth clients. Alec specializes in the genealogy of 20th century immigrants to the United States. He is a regular lecturer at genealogical societies and conferences. He serves as the President of the New York Genealogy & Technology Group, serves actively on the Board of Directors of the Association of Professional Genealogists, and on the Board of Reclaim the Records, a nonprofit dedicated to wrangling public records from obstinate government agencies.

JGS Maryland has been reconstituted!
JGSMD had its initial meeting on Sunday August 18, 2013 to see if there was interest in the group's reconstituting. The turnout was overwhelming, with 31 people attending with only a few days' notice. Look forward to new programming over the next year!
