Hey there, I just want to make you aware of the upcoming genealogical events for Texas. They are fast approaching and you still have time to plan for them if you want to attend. I will only talk about the ones that I am aware and if I left one out please send me the information for it. The upcoming genealogical events are the 36th Annual Texas State Hispanic Genealogical and Historical Conference, Branching Out 2015: A Genealogical Fair Old City Cemetery Center, and the 2015 Family History Conference.

I will also have vendors table selling my books and also promoting Las Villas del Norte.
