GENEALOGY
WITH SPECIAL HELP FROM
MACY’s Genealogical Research
Near the main field and Vendor Village you'll find the Genealogy Tent. There Megan Clark Young and her knowledgeable helpers can assist you in finding out more about your possible Scottish roots from 9:30 AM to 3:30 PM. The key to your family history is knowing how to find information about your name, immigrant ancestor, Scotland's geography and history, available records, and where to find more information.
The Genealogy volunteers will be available to assist in looking up information about your ancestors and printing out a page or two. However, Wi-Fi service in that portion of Idlewild Park is spotty depending on the weather, so they may not be able to look up information at all times of the day. But, you can still sit down, get help working up your basic family tree, and go home with a printout. Plus there will be plenty of maps and reading material about researching Scottish ancestors if you want to come in and take a break.
