Reached a brick wall in your genealogical research?

LONGPORT -

Have you reached a brick wall in your genealogical research? Some researchers claim they have reached the end of their search only to find that one little piece of information that is the key to expanding their history.

Those interested in searching their family tree are encouraged to attend a "Genealogy Lecture: No Brick Walls" being offered 10:30 a.m. Wednesday, Aug. 18 at the Longport Public Library, 2305 Atlantic Ave.

Participants will learn how to advance their research through timelines, online resources and examining research through a different perspective.

Lecturer Catherine Casey Zahn is an American History Fellow for the Nathanael Greene Liberty Foundation and often teaches genealogy classes in communities throughout New Jersey.

Registration is required. Call the library at 609-487-7403.
