October 18th MGS meeting --

MYTH OR TRUTH: STORIES WE'VE HEARD ABOUT EARLY AMERICA

By Judy Lynn Turner-Chester

There are many stories about people and things that are told in museums and historic houses every day that either have little documentary basis or are outright fabrications – stories told to entertain or explain. In this presentation, we will look at some favorite stories that are often heard in museums and various historic places. Examine the evidence, and come to your own conclusions.

This is a great opportunity to meet and converse with friends in a welcoming genealogical community. 

This meeting will be a hybrid in-person/zoom meeting held at 1:30 pm central time. 

Refreshments will be served. 

Meeting location is 1501 Old Fannin Road, Flowood Mississippi. The meetings are in the rear of the ChristWay Church.

  For those who cannot join us in person, the Zoom link is below.
