Genea-Break
We've scheduled another Genea-Break, our zoom event that started it all! Join us for hints and tips, and conversation with your fellow Cranberry genealogists. Members Only - join now for 2020. See the Membership page.
Special Date: November 18, 2020 at 6:30 PM via Zoom
Organizing Paper & Digital Files, & Mind-Mapping
[Our meeting will be a week earlier than usual, to avoid conflict with Thanksgiving.]
Once you gather your genealogy, and record everything that you’ve found, how do you get a grip on the “mess” you’ve created? Rebecca Kichta Miller will walk you through how to simply organize your research, on paper or digitally, and keep it that way. Then she’ll teach you how to organize your mind with a technique called mind-mapping.
Ms. Kichta-Miller has been ‘doing genealogy’ since 1971, and is a popular and lively presenter. She runs the website “Shake the Tree” and is President-Elect of the Western Pennsylvania Genealogical Society as well as and Editor of the Society’s newsletter, Jots from the Point.
Here is the Zoom Meeting information:

CEMETERY WALK RECAP
The Cranberry Genealogy Club's annual Cemetery Walk, held at the Evans City Cemetery, was the best-attended in our history, with 18 members. Some pictures are posted in the gallery below. If anyone has other pics they'd like to contribute, e-mail them to info@cranberrygenealogy.org or to Debbie Billeter directly.
Many attendees went to Wendereusz Candy and More in downtown Evans City, for Penn State Creamery ice cream. We're guessing that Peachy Paterno was the favorite flavor!
