Learn to ‘peel back the layers’ of your ancestors
By BILL CASTANIER
Each year, the Archives of Michigan and the Michigan Genealogical Council host a seminar on compiling family histories that’s geared toward both genealogical experts and amateurs who want to learn more about their families and where they came from.
The program is named for the late Barbara J. Brown, who dedicated her life to writing her family history. It’s supported by the Abrams Foundation, a nonprofit that funds various projects around the state, primarily relating to education and science.
For 26 years, Brown was president of the Abrams Foundation, founded by her uncle and aunt Talbert and Leota Abrams. She was also president and a board member of the Abrams Aerial Survey Corp., a former Lansing company that was world-renowned for its aerial photography.
Brown published two books on family genealogy, including one on the Abrams family. Her work is a significant part of the state archives’ genealogical collection, which is underwritten by the Abrams Foundation, now led by her daughter.
Registration for the two-day program May 10 and 11 at the Michigan History Center is $55 and available at michigan.gov/mhc/archives. For those who attend in person, breakfast and lunch will be provided
