At the beginning of every American family is an immigrant ancestor. Finding these forebears is a research challenge that offers real rewards: the chance to explore our Old World roots and perhaps
discover family connections in other countries. Join us at our Lower Burrell library as genealogist Donna Edwards-Jordan takes us through the history of immigration in America and provides some tips for finding your immigrant ancestors. Take-home materials include Internet-based resources for immigration research and some links to European research sites.
