    Scallywags, Rogues, and Ruffs: All Those Ancestors We Don't Talk About

    7:00 pmThe Decatur Church of Christ, Decatur texas

    Our speaker will be Kelvin Meyers  Scallywags, Rogues, and Ruffs:  All Those Ancestors We Don't Talk About.  Every family has them, skeletons in the closet--those things that are not talked about in front of the children, and when they are it is only in whispers and euphemisms.  How do you access the records of prisons, asylums, and courts to find the truth behind the story>  In this lecture this question and many others will be answered.
