The Fédération québécoise des sociétés de généalogie announced Quebec’s seventh annual National Genealogy Week – Semaine nationale de la généalogie — will be held this year from November 17 to 24.
The theme is Remonter le temps… À la découverte de vos ancêtres ! — Go back in time… Discover your ancestors!
The purpose of the week is to increase awareness about genealogical societies and what they offer and inspire Quebecers of all ages, including children and teens, to research their family history.
The full calendar of free activities across the province will be available at the end of October, although about 35 are already listed online, including a guided tour of the Bibliothèque et Archives nationales du Québec in Old Montreal.
Activities include workshops, guided tours, exhibits, open houses, and presentations.
