Midwestern Roots Conference

I ventured to the "old neighborhood" Friday and Saturday for the IHS 2012 Midwestern Roots Conference at the Indy Marriot East at 21st and Shadeland. [I grew up at the extreme eastern end of Irvington - the last bus turn-around in the city limits and between 10th and 16th in Warren Twp.] As usual the conference was pretty well put together. The sessions I attended were both informative and entertaining. The Genealogical Society of Marion County did a brisk business. We had quite a few people stop by with questions. Hopefully, a few new members will come out of the visits. If you get a chance, attend the next Midwestern Roots Conference in 2014.
