Presented by Wellington County Branch Ontario Ancestors

Join members of the Wellington County Branch, Ontario Ancestors and the Guelph Public Library’s Archivist to help you discover your family’s story. Please register. Adults.

Resources such as maps, atlases, directories, gazetteers and insurance plans can provide valuable information about your ancestors.  Join members of the Wellington County Branch, Ontario Ancestors and the Guelph Public Library’s Archivist to learn about how to use geographic tools, how they can help in identifying where your ancestor lived, the migration routes they may have used, where records may be located when county boundaries change or towns seem to vanish and so much more.
