For those of you who have Irish or Scots-Irish ancestors, two nationally renowned speakers are coming to northeast Wisconsin to help discover more about those roots, thanks  to a grant from the Miller/Anthes Family Fund within the Community Foundation.

The grant helps support a March 13th lecture at the Brown County Library in Green Bay by Fintan Mullan and Gillian Hunt from the Ulster Historical Foundation. The two will hold workshops on how to get the most out of Irish resources and records, gain strategies for breaking down walls, and grasp important historical context that may help fill in gaps in your research.
