VGA Hangouts is an opportunity to “hangout” with other VGA members while working on your own family tree!
When: Saturday, February 24th at 12:00pm Eastern
Topic: Transcribing Latin
Participants will have the opportunity to work on their own family tree while focusing on documents written in Latin. There will be opportunities to ask the group for help deciphering handwriting and the Latin phrases!
