Next CCGS Meeting
UPDATED again.
Please be advised that the AGM for CCGS will be held on Feb 24th at 7 p.m.
This meeting will be held by teleconference with the possibility of locals being able to attend in person if Covid-19 restrictions allow at that time. If that becomes possible a location for the meeting will be announced at a date closer to the 24th (restrictions change daily at the moment) If you are interested in attending in person please let me know.
If you would like to join us for this AGM via teleconference please send your request for the phone number.
This meeting is necessary as we are required to submit paper work to register the Society with the Government of Nova Scotia and also our Charitable Tax Status.
We hope to see as many of you as possible to reconnect after our long hiatus during Covid-19 restrictions.
Due to the COVID pandemic the Board of Directors has voted in favour of keeping the offices of Cumberland County Genealogy Centre closed to researchers and guests until our summers hours begin in May 2021 at which time this policy will be revisited.
We would like to advise you all that researchers are available to you - if you have a request please send an email to
Thank you for your patience and understanding during these uncharted times.

Show and Tell at our monthly meetings is uncovering some interesting treasures. We will be featuring more in coming issues. Our April meeting will be the night prior to the workshop and after a short meeting we will be setting up for the following day. We might even taste test some cookies. Our web site is looking great and has been well utilized to publicize the workshop. Please take time to look at the queries on the site and respond to any you can.
