NGS’s educational mission is to offer lectures covering a wide range of local, regional, and general genealogy topics. Along with records and repositories, historical context, and methodology, the conference program features a four-day DNA track and workshops on chromosome mapping. Other topics include North Carolina, Regional Movement, Native American, African American, and research beyond US borders.

The Board for Certification of Genealogists’ Skillbuilding track will again be an integral part of the conference. Anyone with an interest in producing high quality work for clients, publication, or your own family that will stand the test of time should make these lectures a priority.

This year’s conference also offers fun social events including Society Night at the North Carolina Museum of History and Pig Pickin’ at the North Carolina State Fairground, both sponsored by the North Carolina Genealogical Society.
