Speaker Handouts

The PGSM general membership meeting held on March 16th, 2019 at the St Clair Shores District Library was well attended by those anxious to learn how to break down their genealogical brick walls. Therese Leszcz, PGSM Director and Research Request Chairperson has provided her handouts to share with distant members and those in the area who are not able to attend meetings. She has also allowed us to share her slide presentation as well as her notes. Thanks, Therese!!!
