GENEALOGY IS ABOUT Community & COnnecting!

One of Western Canada’s largest conferences, featuring two days of Family History Discovery, opportunities for one-on-one Consults with the World’s Leading Experts and Much More!  Presenting Four acclaimed speakers from Scotland, the USA and Canada with 16 topics to choose from.  Whether you are just beginning your family history journey or are a seasoned researcher, this Conference will motivate and inspire you.  This year’s event is more intimate than previous years but we will still have some products, books and information on-offer in Our Marketplace.  Add to this, the KDGS Family & Local History Research Centre’s Open House, Meet the Speakers Reception and Raffles all set in Kelowna during Apple & Grape Harvest Season… making THIS an event not to be missed!
