Roots to Branches Club

If you’re doing research on your family history or looking for an elusive ancestor, our Roots to Branches Club is for you.

Running out of the Selkirk branch, the club brings together a group of enthusiastic genealogists who cooperate on research projects. Experiences library staff also support the club sharing tips on little-known databases, research methods, and how to move past hurdles.

Newcomers to the hobby will have the opportunity to draw on the knowledge of more experienced genealogists.  

Roots to Branches Club meetings

The club meets at the Selkirk branch on the last Saturday of the month from 10:30-11:30 a.m. There is no group meeting in the month of December. No registration is required.

All meetings begin with a short discussion on or demonstration of a research tip, technique or database, followed by general discussions on member questions or challenges.

If you own your own laptop, we encourage you to bring it with you to utilize our in-house subscription to Ancestry.com.
