Genealogy Programming
The Walker County Genealogy Society is hosting a writing group on the third Wednesday of each month at the Huntsville Public Library. The purpose of the group is to document family stories before they are forgotten. The group will meet from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. in the Johnnie Jo Dickenson Sowell Genealogy Room and will use the time to write, discuss, and/or help each other. The group is free and open to everyone, not just genealogists. Everyone has a story and knowing family stories helps emotional well-being for all ages. Be a part of the group and provide your grandchildren with a past of family stories that they may take into the future. For more information, contact Adult Services Coordinator Mary Kokot at 936-291-5471.
The Huntsville Public Library, in cooperation with the Walker County Genealogical Society, will host the state-wide 2023 Genealogy Network of Texas event in celebration of Family History Month. The presentations take place from 10:30 a.m. to 3:50 p.m. on Friday, October 20 at the Huntsville Public Library. Join us in the Staggs Community Room for this unique genealogical event.

The event is FREE, and registration is encouraged but not required. Register here or call Adult Services Coordinator Mary Kokot at 936-291-5471. The programs are provided by the Genealogy Network of Texas (GNT), a state-wide initiative to connect libraries/genealogical societies and provide educational and research opportunities that is spearheaded by the Genealogy Center of the Waco-McLennan County Library. Co-sponsors include the Central Texas Genealogical Society and the Texas State Genealogical Society.
