Write Your Family History Workshop

A family tree is a factual representation of who’s who in a family, but family trees are only about names and dates. The true stories of the lives that came before ours can be fully appreciated and experienced only through family narratives. If these stories are not written down, something immeasurable is lost.  

Jacob Thomas and Jeffrey Howard, ISU Ph.D. candidates and instructors, are passionate about helping you to bring your own priceless family stories to life. Starting in February and continuing through June, they will host a workshop class the second Tuesday of every month at Marshall Public Library to help you write and preserve these stories.

The first class “People and Events” will be on Tuesday, February 9, from 7-8 p.m. Classes are free and open to all members of the public, but registration is required. To register for the first class or for more information, please call the library at 232-1263 ext. 106.
