Scoundrels, Saints, & Spice at the Santa Barbara Co. Genealogical Society!

Bonnie Raskin will be the featured speaker at the Saturday, June 21, 2008 meeting of the Santa Barbara County Genealogical Society.

Her talk, entitled "A Tale of Three Orphans," will spotlight the amazing research and discovery journey that began when three children appeared out of nowhere on a 1930 Sheridan, Wyoming, Census.

Additionally, Mel Sahyun will provide an illustrated tale of "Dick Dowell, Santa Barbara's Frontier Lawman."

The meeting will begin at 10:30 a.m., at the First Presbyterian Church, 21 E. Constance Avenue at State Street. Please park in the upper lot off of Constance. There is plenty of free parking, and the facility is handicapped-accessible.

Special Interest Groups start at 9:30 a.m., and are a great way to start your morning. Come early and plan to participate in a group and enjoy refreshments and coffee.

Contact Programs Chair, Mary E. Hall at mehall2@cox.net, for more information and to arrange to present your saint or scoundrel or spice at the June program.
