The summer is the perfect time for genealogy hobbyists to learn new research tricks. That’s why the St. Tammany Parish Library will be hosting two genealogy programs this summer!
Preserving the Path, Service to Others: Daughters of the American Revolution will be held from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Monday, June 11th at the Covington Branch, 310 W. 21st Ave. Members from the Pierre de Mandeville and Wharton Chapters of St. Tammany Parish will give an overview of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR), a lineage group for individuals whose ancestors either contributed or fought in the American Revolutionary War.
