Nebraska Genea-Peeps Group on Facebook

Are you a genealogist living in Nebraska? Do you research your Nebraska ancestors? If so, I'd like to invite you to join a Facebook group called Nebraska Genea-Peeps:

https://www.facebook.com/groups/144381855641807/

It's a group for genealogists living in or researching in Nebraska. You can ask questions, share research tips and Nebraska resources. At some point, we hope to plan some informal in-person get togethers, ride sharing to events or day-long research trips or do some cemetery hopping.

Recently, someone posted a request for help in finding an obituary for her grandfather, and within a few minutes, we discovered a source for the obituary, which she was able to order online.

We also post upcoming genealogy events. Come join in!

  1. A great idea. I like the idea of regional support and social networking amongst the genea-bloggers, and this was my original thought behind the New England Geneablogger Bash. It was nice to see the faces behind the blog posts and Facebook updates. Thomas MacEntee is fully behind the idea, too, and I hope it spreads!
