Research your family tree: The census-taker may have missed your ancestor, but the tax man didn’t. “Tax Lists, an Under-Utilized Resource” is the topic to be presented by Sarah Fleming at the April 3 monthly meeting of Sno-Isle Genealogical Society at 19903 Poplar Way, Heritage Park, Lynnwood. Meeting and refreshments start at 6:30 p.m. with the formal program at 6:45 p.m.
A lot can be learned from tax records starting with the Civil War. Fleming has been a genealogist for about 40 years and has taken numerous courses on this subject. Guests are welcome. For more information, call 425-775-6267.
