Join the Belfast Free Library and the Wawenoc Chapter of the Maine Genealogical Society on Wednesday, April 15, at 2 p,m, in the Abbott Room of the Belfast Free Library, for a fun scavenger hunt game. 

The host will pull “types” of ancestors from a hat (died in a war, enumerated twice in the same census, member of the clergy, etc.), and the group will see who has those direct ancestors in their own family tree. The person with the most direct ancestors from all those called wins. (Please email if you would like to see the list of ancestor types ahead of time to search your family tree.) 

This event is free and open to the public. It is an in-person event, with a Zoom option available. Please email spietryka@belfastlibrary.org to request the link.

The Wawenoc Chapter is the Belfast area’s chapter of the Maine Genealogical Society. It meets monthly on the third Wednesday at the Belfast Free Library. Genealogists of all abilities and skill-levels are encouraged to join.
