Subject:"Using the Internet for Genealogy"
Speaker: Donna Young
Donna Dugle Young began researching her family shortly after moving to
Grass Valley from Los Gatos fourteen years ago. She is an active member
of both Nevada County and Placer County Genealogical Societies. She was
the leader and lecturer at the weekly meetings of Grass Roots Genealogy
Group for over six years. Donna has introduced many, many beginners to
genealogy over the past twelve years through classes and at area
seminars. She and her husband Ron are volunteers at the Family History
Center in Nevada City. Donna is in charge of their book collection,
which is a combination of about one thousand books belonging to Grass
Roots, NCGS and the FHC. The Young's have made numerous research trips
to Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Massachusetts, Vermont,
West Virginia, Kentucky, and North Carolina in their 19 foot RV, researching in
the areas where their ancestors lived as early as 1630. Donna and Ron recently returned from a trip to Ireland where they both had ancestors.
