The stacks of Chicago’s Newberry Library bulge with maps, family papers, genealogies, railroad archives and much, much more. Learn what’s available for your U.S. and European forebears and how to access it in person or from a distance. The talk will include some highlights of Danish-American material.
Grace Dumelle is a longtime staffer in the Local and Family History section of the Newberry Library in Chicago. Guiding people to discoveries about their families is something she greatly enjoys. She is an alumna of the Institute of Genealogical and Historical Research and the author of Finding Your Chicago Ancestors: A Beginner's Guide to Family History in the City and Cook County.
