PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE - March 2023
Our March monthly meeting will not be held at our usual location due to voting. Instead, it will be held at the Watson Realty building located at 4194 San Juan Ave, Jacksonville, FL 32210. The doors open at 10:00 am. Due to limited seating this meeting will also be available via Zoom and the link will be sent out with the meeting reminder. If you are not a member of our society and would like to receive the Zoom invitation please email us as sgesjax@att.net.
Our speaker is Kristi Dorney, a librarian in the Special Collections section of the downtown library. She will be speaking about their new Memory Lab, where you digitize various formats of old home movies, music/audio, photos, slides and negatives, and books and documents as long as you have a valid library card.

We also have many volumes covering special subjects like Revolutionary War Soldiers, Civil War soldiers, and the Great Puritan Migration, all within the SGES library. These resources cover the United States as well as some foreign countries. Many family ancestry's records have also been documented and placed within our library.
