Welsh Genealogy

WSWNE Welsh Genealogy Workshop

Before the COVID-19 pandemic, we had an active group meeting in person every other month to research their Welsh family trees together in Glastonbury, CT. We look forward to resuming these when it is safe to do so.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, online chats via ZOOM are providing a new way to help members solve their Welsh ancestry puzzles.

Check on our EVENTS page for upcoming dates.
