Heraldry & Genealogy
Presented by Greg Hand
Heraldry & Genealogy
Coats of arms provide an important historical record for genealogists. The study of arms, known as heraldry, uncovers clues to birth order, property, name origin, geography and occupation of your ancestors. There are many myths and misconceptions about heraldry and some unique jargon, known as blazon. Learning about heraldry can enrich your family tree.

RootsWeb & Ancestry Data Breech
RootsWeb has been down for well over 6 months.
In my opinion, RootsWeb is gone for good.
Ancestry owns RootsWeb.
This impacts CCGS as we still had a significate amount of content on RootsWeb. Other societies have their entire web presence on RootsWeb.
I would urge you to call Ancestry and let them know how this impacts you. Greater Cincinnati Foundation Grant
We are pleased to announce that our Society has been awarded a $1,000 grant from the Greater Cincinnati Foundation , The suggestion for the grant was from an individual who wishes to remain Anonymous. That person wishes for the grant to be used support Technology or for where it is needed most.
Thank You to the Greater Cincinnati Foundation and the Anonymous "suggestor" !!!!
