September 19, 2022 - Delora Silvers Simms, born and raised in Corpus Christi, Texas, moved to East Texas in 1983. About seven years ago, a friend encouraged her to research her family, and she was hooked on genealogy. She volunteers at Lufkin Family History and Life Center, located in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Delora has extensive knowledge of Family Search, a research database which is maintained by the Latter Day Saints. Unlike Ancestry, Family Search is a free site.
Records are constantly being added, and Ms. Sims will explore its changes with her audience as Timpson Area Genealogy and Heritage Society welcomes her as our speaker Wednesday, September 21, at 2 PM. The public is welcome to attend at the annex of Timpson Public Library.
