Program Description

Event Details

Join PPLD Regional History and Genealogy in learning about the long-awaited released of the 1950 Census! The federal census is an invaluable resource for researching our family history. The 1950 Census will provide new insight into a fascinating time in U.S. History, shortly after the Second World War and just before the introduction of color TV, the discovery of DNA, and the day when Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on an Alabama bus. Regional History and Genealogy will be offering classes throughout the month to help you take advantage of this new genealogical resource.

There is no cost to participate in this virtual class; all registrants will receive an email reminder including a Zoom link three days before the class.

Don't want to wait? Download the class handout from this calendar listing or check out our website to learn more about PPLD's other genealogy resources!
