About this event

Curious about your family history but not sure where to begin? Whether you're just getting started or have already begun exploring your roots, the Fairfax Genealogical Society (FxGS) invites you to a free, welcoming online introduction to genealogy.

Learn how to take those first steps toward discovering your ancestors, organize what you already know, explore historical records, and uncover the stories behind the names and dates. We'll also introduce helpful research resources, share practical tips for avoiding common mistakes, and show how FxGS can support you on your family-history journey.

No previous genealogy experience is necessary. Bring your curiosity and your questions!

Advance registration is required. Join us for an enjoyable hour of learning, discovery, and connecting with others who share your interest in family history.
