Join us for a celebration of the first fifty years of our society and its many significant contributions to the genealogical community in Massachusetts, New England, and beyond. We will be looking at our past, present, and future, and sharing highlights from the anniversary luncheon on 25 September at the Danversport. These include some history and reminiscences presented by charter member David C. Dearborn and other long-time members of ESOG. We will discuss current activities and resources available to ESOG members and the community, and future plans for our society. We will take another look at the inter-connections among the families of our early Essex County ancestors, and see if we can discover more cousins within the group.

Please join us to learn more about ESOG, and for a lively discussion about what our society has meant to you and can offer you in the future. We invite you to share any stories or memories of your association with ESOG, and to bring any suggestions for programs or meetings which we might offer in the future.
