Queries are a beloved NERGC tradition, rooted in the joy of connecting with others and discovering new cousins. There are two ways to have your queries featured. The first is to submit them for inclusion in the Syllabus — just $10 for up to 4 lines of text. Visit Zeffy, via the button below, to process the order by debit or credit card, or use the order form, via the button below, to mail in a check. The deadline for submissions to be included in the Syllabus is January 1, 2027.
The second option is to post your query on the Bulletin Board during the conference, where fellow attendees can browse and take notice. With your permission, all queries will also be posted on the NERGC website following the conference.
The preferred format uses standard abbreviations and the date written as 27 July 1927. Show birth, death, marriage in that order, with event location shown before date and all known information stated before the question is asked. Remember to include your contact information!
