Suffield’s Sibbil Dwight Kent chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) will sponsor a workshop to assist individuals starting a genealogical search or in continuing to gather information about their ancestry.

The workshop will be held in the training room of the Suffield Volunteer Ambulance Association, located at 205 Bridge Street, on Saturday, March 31 at 10 a.m. The workshop is open to the public. Application forms will be available for anyone interested in joining the DAR and special assistance will be provided for the process.

Jolene Mullen, who has been a professional genealogist for over twenty years, will conduct the program and will provide personal assistance for participants.
