I would like to thank Diane Jensen for her contributions to the Evans FamilySearch Center. She has done much to bring family histories to life to many members of the Church and the community.
I would like to welcome Jaime Gillies and Katrina Jones as the new FamilySearch Center Coordinators. I love their excitement for genealogy and look forward to them helping you with your quest for knowledge of your ancestors.

Starting the week of August 26th, the Evans Georgia FamilySearch Center will be offering a free home school curriculum to any student K-12 that would like to learn more about their family history. Learning about one's family history is a great way to engage students in learning about American and world history.

Registration is required and classes will be formed based upon response. These classes are available in person or online, both requiring parental participation. To learn more about the benefits of the program, please go to https://www.egfsc.org/family-history-homeschool1.html
