It helps us hold onto the family, which is central to us. An Evansville, Indiana, stake welcomed the public to a free family history fair this past weekend. Organizers of the fair welcomed anyone with genealogy questions to attend. The fair's purpose was to share and teach others about incredible resources of information available, including familysearch.org and the recently released Ellis Island records. We are delighted to be able to share it with people.
Family history can help families heal old wounds.
We know that's true for people of any denomination or faith or background. As part of the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers 100-year celebration, members gathered at the Ogden City Cemetery to plant trees in honor of four of the first prominent pioneer women to settle the Salt Lake Valley. Now these students are co-founders of a company that boasts clients such as Novell, Franklin Covey, and Humanvoice. Jeff Burningham, Jake Anderegg, and Joshua Steimle participated in the University of Utah's Entrepreneur Challenge. Mindwire Interactive was one of the 10 finalists of 250 entries.
