This is from a group that I heard of for the first time recently...
their name intrigued me and was interested in their concept of a virtual conference.



The Humble Area Genealogical Society serves an area in Northeast Houston, Texas. We have monthly educational meetings, support a library, and work on projects to promote genealogy in our area. We're hosting this virtual conference to help make those goals possible.

Here's the link to the conference page. 


The conference page can be found by clicking the graphic on the first page.
The  Society meets monthly to learn genealogy methodology, participates in research trips and manages a genealogy library.
Please direct all enquiries to the Society.

  1. Sadly with everything set for a fantastic day, suddenly we were being warned of the terrible covid virus approaching and as we got closer to June it was apparent that we would not be able to hold our reunion. We tried again for June 20n,21, but had to give up again., Another date is yet to be advised... Robyn Single
