Lectures will be one hour long, including a ten minute question and answer period. Submissions for workshops, especially for Thursday afternoon, will be considered.
In 2011, OGS will be inaugurating our newest Lineage Society, the Century Families of Ohio. This society will include those members who have ancestors who were first time residents of Ohio from 1861 to 1911.
Therefore we are specifically looking for African American, Scandinavian, Southern and Eastern European, and late 19th Century and early 20th Century topics. In addition, proposals are being sought in a variety of areas including beginning genealogy, Ohio‐specific topics, states associated with Ohio (through migration into or out of the state), methodology, technology, ethnic topics, writing/publishing, immigration, preservation, etc. In addition, we are seeking proposals on military resources, business/industrial records, fraternal and service organizations, and proof
