About this Event

Join us at the Museum to learn tips from genealogist Grant Din on researching your Asian-American ancestry. This free workshop is presented in partnership with the Petaluma Old Chinatown Memorial Park Ad Hoc Committee.

Grant Din has conducted genealogical research for over thirty-five years and currently serves on the board of the California Genealogical Society and consults on genealogical and nonprofit projects. He served on the staff of the Angel Island Immigration Station Foundation for eight years and currently volunteers there to manage the Immigrant Voices website with over 220 stories of West Coast immigrants from throughout the world. His research has taken him throughout California, China, and Japan to research his and his family’s journeys.

Grant holds a Certificate in Genealogical Research from Boston University, an M.A. in public policy analysis from Claremont Graduate University, and a B.A. in sociology with emphasis on urban studies from Yale University, and has traveled throughout the U.S., China, and Japan for his research. He has close to forty years of experience in the Bay Area non-profit sector and lives with his family in Oakland, CA.
