Update: If you missed "CARING FOR TOMBS," listen in on YouTube at https://youtu.be/ARwSS-LJh0o?si=8pvklHMUz-a2IPhh . The video quality is poor due to the conditions at the library but the audio comes through fine.

GRSNO had an audience of 45 people on Mon. Oct. 27 as Emily Ford gave an informative presentation on "Caring for Tombs," appropriate for just before All Saints Day. A big shout out to president Stephen Stuart, who handled the last minute room change with aplomb. We'll be back in the Jefferson Room next month!

A sold-out GRSNO lunch crowd celebrated Jari Honora's revelation last month that Pope Leo XIV's family is from New Orleans! One of the people who inspired Jari's career path is Barbara Trevigne, a local historian, who remembers Jari as a young boy coming to check out microfilm. GRSNO membership is exciting right now; a $40 membership could be your path to finding your ancestors. Find us at: https://www.grsno.org/
