On the Road to Yellowstone – Early August 2023

On the Road to Yellowstone – Early August 2023
This family's experience:

Activities: We went to the Genealogy Center. We regretted not having scheduled a whole day dedicated to researching our ancestors. We were taken care of individually by volunteers who accompanied us in our research. Even the boys each had a computer and a guide!

Highlights: We were given plenty of advice and addresses to continue this work from France, although their data stops at my grandparents' generation. The boys were happy to have a computer and a guide each ✨
