GANS Member Queries

At our first meeting of the 2010–2011 season, held on 28 September 2010, we had our first ever "Brick Wall Busters" session. We asked members to submit their Brick Wall Queries. Ten of those queries, five from local members and five from members outside of the area, would be selected for our President, Dr. Allan  Marble, C.G.(C) and Virginia "Ginny" Clark, C.G.(C) to make some suggestions how these members might be able to further their research and, hopefully, break down their Brick Wall. This obviously struck a very responsive chord, judging by the number of queries received and the excellent turnout at the meeting. As promised, we are posting the ten selected queries, five local and five from "away", here on our website.

Our Second Annual "Brick Wall Busters" session was held on 22 November 2011. Members were asked to submit their Brick Wall Queries; six of those queries, three from local / regional members and three from members outside of Nova Scotia, were selected. Again we were most fortunate to have our two excellent genealogists, Dr. Allan  Marble, C.G.(C) and Virginia "Ginny" Clark, C.G.(C) willing to analyze and make some suggestions for how these members might be able to further their research and, hopefully, break down their Brick Wall.
