Whether you are new to genealogy or a seasoned genealogist, Northern Essex Community College is offering two, noncredit genealogy research opportunities this fall.

The “First Tuesday Genealogy” discussion group is designed for both the beginner and advanced genealogist. It meets the first Tuesday of the month from 10 to 11:30 a.m. in the NECC Student Center, Room 213, on the Haverhill campus.

This group is free and open to the public. Participants are encouraged to explore their family’s lineage by learning to use the numerous available resources. They will meet with other genealogy enthusiasts who will share their successes and failures and share tips for solving tricky genealogy problems.

This discussion group will be led by Marcelle Greenbaum of Haverhill, a retired biology and chemistry teacher turned genealogist.

A more formal, four-week Genealogy Study Group, also led by Greenbaum, will be held each Wednesday beginning October 5, for the month of October from 10 a.m. until noon. There is a $30 fee to join the group.

This study group is designed for those new to researching their family’s genealogy and lineage. The focus is placed on learning the tools and resources available to begin a search and valuable tips to help in the process. Participants will learn valuable skills to begin mapping out their genealogical history.”
