Discover the stories hidden in historical records at the Genealogy Department's annual Summer Symposium on Saturday, August 1, from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Main Library at Goodwood. This year's program explores how vital records shaped race and identity and how Free People of Color navigated these systems before and after emancipation. Through historical documents and expert insights, presenters Regina Bergeron, Alie Foster, and Katy Morlas Shannon will reveal what these records can teach us about the lives of extraordinary everyday people.
