The Athens-Clarke County Library will partner with the Clarke-Oconee Genealogical Society (COGS) to proudly host African-American genealogy researcher Elyse Hill! One of the most challenging, frustrating and sometimes impossible tasks in African American genealogical research is finding information about formerly enslaved individuals pre-emancipation. Presenter Elyse Hill, CG, will explain how Civil War pension records can provide rare first person accounts regarding the lives of Union veterans both formerly enslaved and free persons of color as well as individuals utilized as servants and laborers for the Confederacy.
This event is free and open to the public and is co-sponsored by the library's Heritage Room and COGS. For more information, call (706) 613-3650. The Athens-Clarke County Library is located at 2025 Baxter St, Athens.
