The Golden Anniversary
Family History Collection

The Ontario Genealogical Society is celebrating its fiftieth anniversary in 2011. To observe this occasion Wellington County Branch of the OGS is collecting as many family histories as possible. We are not looking for literary masterpieces, just down to earth stories exactly the way you write them.

Family trees, histories, a story about one episode in a relative’s life - all will be welcomed. The stories can be 200 or 50 years old and your ancestors may come from anywhere in the world.

Your story can be submitted to us via email (wellington@ogs.on.ca) or in hard copy to:

Wellington County Branch OGS
P.O. Box 1211
Guelph Ontario N1H 6N6

If you need any more information contact us at the above email address.
