In 2001, U.S. Senate Resolution 160 designated the month of October as Family History Month.
While Family History Month may no longer be a priority for the Senate – or any other branch of government, for that matter – it remains something for family historians around the world to celebrate!

So, how will YOU be spending Family History Month? What discoveries do you hope to find? From which classes, webinars, institutes, etc., will you be learning? How will you entice your DNA matches to respond to your emails?
