"Finding Your Roots" In Middle Georgia

People all over America are fascinated by where they came from. Ancestry.com and shows like "Who Do You Think You Are" are urging people to dig a little deeper into the past.

Earl Colvin, director of the Cannonball House, says researching genealogy is helping people link the past to their future.

"I think it gives people a sense of connection, it gives them a sense of knowing who their ancestors were and what role they played in the founding of America."

The Cannonball House will be holding a genealogy workshop, "Finding Your Roots", on May 21st from 10 am until 2pm. The workshop will be a beginners course in researching your family lineage. For more information call (478) 745-5982.
