MEETING ANNOUNCEMENT

The next monthly meeting of the Graves County Genealogy Society will be 5:30 p.m., Monday February 9th at the Mayfield/Graves County Public Library.

 

Graves County native and locally renowned artist Ronnie Moyers will be guest speaker for the genealogy-history society meeting held monthly at the Graves County Public Library.  Having been a 1996 graduate of Mayfield High School, Ronnie is a current board member of the Community Performing Art Center, home of the Purchase Players for which he volunteers his artistic and acting giftings.  Happily married just over 26 years to his wife Jaime, a teacher at Mayfield/Graves County ATC, he enjoys kayaking, hiking and beach time.  Come join us to learn of how blessed we are to have him and his volunteer heart to enrich our county.  A business meeting will be held after Ronnie's presentation.

This meeting will be a continuance of business from the January meeting. 

As we begin a new year there is much discussion to be had. All current and prospective members are urged to attend.

Please make every effort to be present so that your opinions may be offered. Looking forward to hearing your suggestions.
