Welcome

Good afternoon fellow family researchers!
I am excited to invite you to our next program this coming Tuesday, April 8, 2025, at 6:00 p.m. Central: ” Travel Your Tree: Walking in Your Ancestors’ Footsteps.” Explore the world of family history travel beyond the confines of television shows like Finding Your Roots. Discover how you can personally trace your ancestors’ paths, whether it’s visiting battlefields where your forebears fought, exploring ancestral villages, or connecting with distant relatives. Join us to uncover expert tips for planning your journey and forging meaningful connections along the way.  

Our speaker is Lisa Vogele, a professional genealogist and Certified Travel Associate (CTA). She is the Chief Tree Climber at Travel Your Tree: Where Ancestry Meets Adventure, a European family history research, travel planning, custom tour & genealogy research tour operator specializing in Italy & Ireland. Lisa is passionate about traveling in the footsteps of your ancestors to make or re-establish connections of personal, historical significance. In spring 2026 she is leading a Genealogy Research Tour to Dublin, Ireland.

The program on Tuesday will be in person at Willard Library, Evansville, Indiana, and also on Zoom. We’d love to see you in person if you are local! Please plan to join us on Tuesday.

Talk to you soon,

President, TSGS
