Lineage Societies Deadline December 31.

Just a little heads-up: If you are working on an application for either The Society of Civil War Families of Indiana or The Territorial Guard Society of Indiana, you have about 30 days to have your envelope postmarked in 2019.

Investigate Your Culture At Ethnic Events

If you want to add depth to your lineage research, you might visit some of the many Indiana ethnic festivals held around the state every year. Documents are fine as far as they go, but you can't lose sight of the fact that those names were living people. IGS was at the Indy International Festival last week and especially enjoyed watching the folk dancing. Below is a Bulgarian dance group displaying a taste of their culture. Would some of your ancestors be doing this?
