Dr. Charles B. Brooks
MAKING
SENSE OF DR. BROOKS
Early
physician in Jacksonville and The Dalles
Presented by Sandy Bisset
We are bringing the Dr.
Brooks research project to a close with a comprehensive power point
presentation, combining information and visuals in a timeline that
stretches from New England to Oregon, covering period events and how
the Brooks family story is woven into them. In our presentation, we
will use research done by Jacksonville Historical Society volunteers,
Columbia Gorge Genealogical Society members, and my research on
behalf of the William Dick Library at the Columbia Gorge Discovery
Center and Historical Museum. Come join us and see an example of what
you can accomplish with a combination of enthusiasm, tenacity,
creativity and a little luck – and sometimes sketchy information.
This is a new format and perspective for this information and whether
or not you took part in the research you should enjoy this wrap-up.
General Meeting starts at 10:30, program to follow. The CGGS meets in the Columbia Gorge Discovery Center in the downstairs classroom. A $1.00 donation is suggested to cover room fee.
The Basalt Cafe will be open for lunch following the program.
