meeting topic

Placing Your Ancestors in Historical
Context: A Tale of Two Franks


our speaker

Beth Foulk, Midwest Genealogy Center

Why did your ancestor settle here?
How did she get there? ... What was life like there?
What prompted him to move?
What forces were pulling on the lives of our ancesters
that influenced their decisions?


Our speaker is a member of the Genealogy Speakers Guild and an instructor
and volunteer at the Midwest Genealogy Center in Independence, MO. An
avid genealogist for more than a decade, she enjoys the research and history
inherent in the study of a family tree. Her interest in American history and
sociology propel her to search deeper into the world of background sources
and 'finding aids' to give depth, dimension, and meaning to family stories.
Come and learn about these rich sources that may help you to put life into
your family tree!



Our society meets at 10:00 am on the 4th Saturday of each month,
except October and December, at the Johnson County Central Resource
Library, 9875 W. 87th Street, Overland Park, Kansas 66212.
Our annual seminar is held on the 4th Saturday in October
