Brant Branch Blog


The Brant Branch of the Ontario Genealogical Society has a new blog at http://brantcountyogs.blogspot.com.

It just recently started, and already in their second posting of the blog this month, they have put on what is available at their library! A good way to start!

I look forward to following their blog, for it looks like it could be asset to the Branch, and may encourage more people to take a look at the website to see what is available.
