This class will provide an understanding of your options for the daily oversight of your or your loved one’s personal finances and how to find a reputable service provider. Cheryl will also discuss the many services that Daily Money Managers (DMMs) perform, how to determine if you need a DMM, and how to find and properly vet a DMM.

Tom Eaton and Jim Simmons discuss the Supreme Court’s Citizens United v. FEC decision. They’ll offer differing viewpoints on whether the decision allows moneyed interests to corrupt our electoral politics or if it represents an important win for election-related First Amendment rights. There will be time for comments and questions from attendees.

Church and other religious-organization records are among the richest—and most underused—sources for both genealogical and historical research. From baptisms and marriages to burials, membership lists, and minutes, these records place individuals within families, congregations, and communities. In this session, we’ll explore the wide range of records available, where to find them, and how to interpret the clues they contain. Learn how to use these “pew and page” resources to uncover relationships, track life events, and better understand the historical context that shaped your ancestors’ lives.
