Centenary Club

While reading George G. Morgan’s Facebook entry today at
https://www.facebook.com/george.g.morgan?fref=tl_fr_box&pnref=lhc.friends on the going to a meeting of the Florida Genealogical Society - Tampa—where a plaque and pin would be presented to the first recipient of the Hillsborough County Century Families program—reminded me of a similar program that the Ontario Genealogical Society (OGS) has called the Centenary Club.

If you have ancestors who lived in the province of Ontario, you can apply for the Centenary Club and receive a certificate.

There are three levels to the Centenary Club –
  • Bronze – Over 100 years
  • Silver – Over 150 years
  • Gold – Over 200 years
You can read about this certificate and application form at http://www.ogs.on.ca/pdfs/Centenary-Club-Application-2014.pdf

Congratulations to Gayle Guyardo, co-anchor of News Channel 8 Today (WFLA) and her family for this honour!
