Toronto Branch is planning a day-long workshop on 11 April 2015 on Upper Canada and Canada West Research, and has just called for speakers who would like to take part.
They are asking if you have expertise in pre-Confederation Ontario family history or local history research that you would like to share?
If so, they would like to know about it.
Potential speakers are invited to submit proposals for lectures on sources, research techniques or historical background that may be helpful to researchers.
Sessions may be targeted at beginners or at more seasoned family historians.
You’ll find a link to their detailed call for presentations on their Speakers and Instructors Wanted page at http://torontofamilyhistory.org/? s=Speakers+and+Instructors+Wanted&submit.x=10&submit.y=5&submit=Search
Please note that the deadline to submit a proposal for this workshop is Saturday 15 November.
And the latest news has come out about the 2016 Conference to be held in Toronto. It will be based at the International Plaza Hotel and conference centre, close to Pearson International Airport, Highway 401, and with good connections by local and regional public transit.
Watch for announcements coming summer of 2015.
