Pastfinders of South Lake County Genealogical Society will be presenting its Pastfinders Cultural and Genealogical Community Showcase in early October to celebrate Family History Month. The event will be to honor connections to the past, ethnic backgrounds and love of family. Admission will be free.
Guests are encouraged to wear traditional clothing or come in their forebearers’ flag colors. A special Cultural Photo-Booth will be available for pictures. Families that have pictures taken at events such as this occasionally take the pictures to local Print shops and have them duplicated for friends and extended family.
Attendees may also enjoy watching the Center of Dance and the Performing Arts’ Scottish Highland dancing and viewing “Finding Samuel Lowe”, a documentary about an African Chinese Jamaican woman (Paula Williams Madison, a former NBC Universal executive) and brothers searching for their family history. The journey begins in Harlem and goes through Jamaica ending in China.
Genealogical, ethnic, and historical groups will be represented. Some of these will be Sons of the American Revolution, South Lake Historical Society of Clermont, Oak Tree Cemetery Project, Groveland, Irish American Club at Kings Ridge, The Caribbean American Association, and the Jewish Friends of Kings Ridge & Congregations of Sinai Temple.
Pastfinders Cultural and Genealogical Community Showcase will take place October 1st from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm at the Cooper Memorial Library, 2525 Oakley Seaver Drive.
