Genealogy booklet is in the works

Wednesday, Nov 15, 2006 - 09:48:02 am CST

A Beatrice family genealogy booklet is in the making as part of the Beatrice 150th anniversary year next year. The booklet will feature present and past Beatrice families.

Along with the family sheet, short (500 words or less) ancedotes and/or summaries of family life in Beatrice may be added. Each family head of household may submit one family sheet free of charge.

Photos may be used at a cost of $2.50 per photo. The photos must be clearly marked on the back with the name of each person in the photo and the name of the submitter. If the photo was made after 1923 and is a professional photo, permission must be given by the owner of the photo to use it. Family snapshot photos may be used with the submitter's permission. Sending the photo to the committee constitutes permission.

All family sheets and photos must be in by Thursday, Nov. 30. Send to Beatrice Family Genealogy Booklet, P.O. Box 294, Beatrice, NE 68310.
