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. In the meantime, stay warm!
