Bruce County Genealogical Society

Serving Bruce County families … past and present

  • A GENEALOGICAL JOURNEY – Ron LaPlante

    June Webinar

    It all started when Ron inherited a 20-gallon Tupperware container of snapshots from his parents. Luckily, some had names and dates written on them. Thus began his journey of researching and documenting two branches of his Paternal Family Tree – drawing him back to 1600.

    Besides building the family tree, he also documented key findings in a 300-page family history book – distributing 85 copies of both to his immediate family. At present, he is writing a novel based on the exploits of his great (X7) grandmother…

    Join in the dialogue with Ron as we discuss the ins and outs, ups and downs of Family Tree research.

The Bruce County Genealogical Society’s mandate is to keep the lives of our County Ancestors alive and to assist those of you, researching your own ancestors, to find all that there is to know about your family. The Archives and Reading Room, which is upstairs in the Bruce County Museum in Southampton and full of history, is a good place for you to begin. Any one of our members will be happy to tell you about what they have found of interest to their family trees in the Archives. Or just ask the staff what records are available for you to peruse.
