ASHLAND – The Ashland Public Library will host Hidden Treasures in Town Records on Tuesday, September 27 virtually at 7 p.m.

This is a presentation and discussion on how town records can help you find ancestors and learn fascinating details about their lives!

Genealogists with New England ancestors have a great advantage in being able to use Town Records as a resource.

From earliest times, New England towns began keeping records of their many activities. This virtual lecture will highlight the benefits of using town records in genealogy, provide examples of gems in the records, suggest ways to locate the records, and present keys to using these records successfully.
