Donations may be made by cheque, e-transfer to "archives@ccgsns.com" or through Paypal by hitting the Donate Button, above - please add a note to say it is for the microfilm reader/printer. Or drop by the office Thursday - Saturday from 10 AM - 4 PM
Come visit Friday & Saturday afternoon from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.
The speaker for this event will be Courtney Mrazek who is the current W.P. Bell Postdoctoral Fellow in the Canadian Studies Department at Mount Allison University. Her topic: "A Matter of Life and Breath: Patient Trends at the Nova Scotia Sanatorium and the Jordan Memorial Sanatorium."
Everyone is welcome.
Please join us for an interesting lecture, a 50/50 draw, and refreshments on November 20th.
Meetings are always open to the public, so please come join your local family Genealogical Society, which has been serving Cumberland County for the past 24 years.

[From the Editors:]
As you can see from the outgoing president’s report, 2002 was a very busy year for the Society. 2003 promises to be very eventful as well. With various projects underway, especially the one to digitize Death Records and Will Books, we expect to keep many members busy. We need your support to make this a success – not just your financial support through membership dues, but perhaps some time spent confirming the accuracy of the index records since you are the experts on family names in Cumberland County.
Time to renew your membership for 2003
First meeting – 7 pm Tuesday, January 21.
