SUMMARY:Sussex County Genealogical Society | WWI and WWII Records: When You Have No OMPF? No Problem!
DESCRIPTION:In-Person or Online\n\n \n\nJoin Sussex County Genealogical 
 Society (SCGS) for a presentation by Sara Cochran. Researching 20th Century 
 veterans is especially difficult as a fire destroyed millions of Official 
 Military Personnel Files (OMPF) in 1973. This class will look at other ways 
 to find the stories of the WWI and WII veterans in our families.\n\nSara 
 Cochran is a full-time professional genealogist with thirty years of 
 research experience. Her research has taken her to nearly every state in 
 the USA and Ireland. She especially enjoys breaking down brick walls\, 
 discovering the stories of black sheep ancestors\, and helping individuals 
 preserve their photographic legacy. Cochran holds a Boston University 
 Genealogical Research Certificate\, a Bachelor's Degree in Library 
 Science\, and is an alumna of the ProGen Study Group.\n\nSCGS is a 
 non-profit organization and its mission is to promote genealogy and 
 educational work in a professional manner\, encourage and instruct its 
 members in genealogical research through careful documentation and maintain 
 quality genealogical standards.\n\n\nNOTE: this session is available to 
 attend in-person or through Zoom. You MUST REGISTER and indicate which you 
 prefer. \n\nIf you need assistance with registration or getting your Zoom 
 invitation\, please contact the library. Basic written instructions for 
 using Zoom may be found here and a brief video tutorial may be found 
 here.\n\nFor more information\, visit the SCGS website. This program is 
 co-hosted by the Lewes Public Library.
