Genealogy group meeting: An American Story–From the Mayflower to a Belfast Sea Captain’s Son, 1620-1895

Join us for our first meeting of 2025!

As the Belfast area’s local chapter of the Maine Genealogical Society, we will first elect officers and discuss upcoming programs for the year, followed by a presentation about how the 1895 obituary for a young man from Belfast, the son of a sea captain, led local genealogist Dana Murch to discover a family ancestry steeped in American history, from the Mayflower to the Civil War.

New group members and attendees are always welcome!

All are welcome! These are typically hybrid meetings, with the option to join in-person in the Abbott Room or to join online over Zoom. To receive the Zoom link or for more information, please email Sharon Pietryka at [email protected].
