      <title>Genealogy Writing SIG Monthly Meeting (09 Nov 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Genealogy Writing SIG Monthly Meeting&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Generally held on the 2nd Monday of the month, our SIG meeting is a hybrid of in-person and Zoom meetings.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Are you passionate about genealogy and want to turn your research into compelling stories? The DCAGS Genealogy Writing SIG is here to help! This group focuses on transforming genealogical research into narratives, timelines, case studies, and other engaging formats, creating a lasting legacy for future generations.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Unlike traditional genealogy groups, the Writing SIG emphasizes writing as a craft. It’s not about how to conduct research—it’s about how to share your findings effectively. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced writer, this group provides a supportive environment to develop your skills and preserve your family history.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Date: Monday, November 09, 2026&lt;br&gt;
Time: 09:45 AM Central Time&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Whether you're starting your first family story or refining a complex proof argument, the DCAGS Genealogy Writing SIG is a place to grow, connect, and share. We welcome members of all levels to join us in preserving the past through the power of storytelling.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For more details or to join the SIG, contact Bob Rettammel at&amp;nbsp;&lt;span id="eventEmails_RouteCopySettings_lblSpecificContactEmail" class="RouteCopySettings-HeaderLabel"&gt;&lt;a href="mailto:brettammel@gmail.com" target="_blank"&gt;brettammel@gmail.com.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>DCAGS November Meeting - Ancestor Coffee &amp; Chat (14 Nov 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;h4 style="line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 0px !important;" align="center"&gt;&lt;font face="Open Sans, WaWebKitSavedSpanIndex_0, WaWebKitSavedSpanIndex_0"&gt;Ancestor Coffee, Chat, &amp;amp; QA&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;

&lt;h4 style="line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 0px !important;" align="center"&gt;&lt;font face="Open Sans, WaWebKitSavedSpanIndex_0, WaWebKitSavedSpanIndex_0"&gt;A DCAGS Meetup&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Join us Saturday, November 14th at 11a.m. for a casual coffee, chat, and Q&amp;amp;A at Barriques in Fitchburg.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Our discussion will be two-fold. In honor of Veterans Day, our discussion will center on ancestors/relatives who served our country. Please bring a photograph or a memento to share - we want to hear their story!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Additionally, in preparation for 2027, we want to hear our membership's feedback! Things we did great or could improve, meetings or other offerings we could provide next year. This will be great conversation to lead up for our Membership meeting in December.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This event will be &lt;strong&gt;in person&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;at the Fitchburg Barriques on &lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;" color="#16171A"&gt;5&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;" color="#16171A"&gt;957 McKee Rd in Fitchburg.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
