Ask Granny

The Hudson County Genealogical & Historical Society regularly presents sessions of "Ask Granny", the free educational outreach program funded by local Genealogical Societies, donations, and grants. These "Ask Granny" sessions serve a dual purpose: as a way for attendees create an organized and accurate family tree and as a way to ensure genealogical information is easily accessible for a family's future generations. Research itself is left up to each individual.

In the past, we've facilitated small interactive Ask Granny sessions for schools, clubs, retirement centers, at history fairs and more. For more information about "Ask Granny" visit: askgranny.us
