MEETING
Come visit Thursday, Friday, Saturday from 10 am, to 4 pm.
Regular monthly meetings will resume again starting on Tuesday September 19, 2023.
CCGS will be visiting with Bill Snowden.
Bill has kindly offered to host CCGS on a tour of the Pickering Snowden home circa 1832 in Woodpoint, New Brunswick. Pickering`s daughter Cynthia who married James Clarke from Minudie lived in the house in the 1840`s.
Bill spent many hours restoring the house and has also used one room as a museum of Woodpoint
artifacts.
We hope you will join us on this wonderful escape into the past.
Details as follows:
Meet up at 6:45 at Bill`s home at 415 Hwy 935, Woodpoint, NB.
(If you would like to carpool with someone please call your favourite driver and make those
arrangements)
Need further directions please contact me ``thereids@ns.sympatico.ca`` or ask Google.
Meetings are always open to the public, so please come join your local family Genealogical Society, which has been serving Cumberland County for the past 22 years. Research your heritage and find new relatives. Learn about what times your grandparents lived through, where, when, how, education, religion, occupations, etc.
Much more has been added to our collections during the time of COVID shutdown. Please come and do research from our vast expanding collection.

We are looking forward to seeing you once again.
