Chicago’s Northwest Suburbs March Genealogical Events (Most are Free)

Every month, the first week of the month, I list genealogical events being held in the Northwest Suburbs of Chicago for about the next six weeks. Most events are free, but sometimes you will need to register in advance, especially sponsored by a public library. If it is sponsored by a genealogy society, you probably will not need to register unless there is a fee (designated by the $). Check the website listed for more information.

If you’d like individual help, the following public libraries’ websites state that you may make an appointment with a librarian or genealogy volunteer: Schaumburg, Palatine, Arlington Heights and Mount Prospect. On May 11, June 8 and July 13, 3-4:30 PM, the Indian Trails Library, Wheeling has a genealogy question and answer session with the librarian. Due to their 2016 remodeling, starting in May, the meetings will be held at 70 W Dundee Road, Buffalo Grove. The Palatine Public Library holds a group Thursday evenings at 7:00 on March 3, and April 7. The Bloomingdale Public Library has a similar group on the fourth Thursdays of the month at 6:30 PM. Check the library websites for more details.

If you know of any events that I have missed, please email me. I hope you see an event you’d like to attend.
