November & December Events in the NW Suburbs

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 (which is designated by the $).  Check the website listed for more information.

There are very few events for December so this is both November and December's offerings.  Enjoy the holidays and spending time with your family.

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