The revised agenda below is a work in progress and depends on confirmation from people and groups.

We've tried to balance activities with opportunities to research your roots and to meet and share with others in your family tree. This revision will allow more time for descendants to gather together.

We'll notify those who have pre-registered by E-mail of any significant changes.

Thank you for your patience.
