Danville library's genealogy group to discuss divorce records

The Danville library's Genealogy Nuts genealogy group will meet on Monday, July 8 at 1 pm in the library's program room on the ground floor. Meredith Thompson will give a presentation on "Divorce: A 19th Century Epidemic". The presentation will give an introduction to American divorce records and some of the online resources available for locating a divorce case. It will touch on the history of divorce in the United States and identify areas that became known as “divorce mills” because of their willingness to grant quick divorces – including Indianapolis.

Guests are welcome - no registration is required. For more information, call the library at (317) 745-2604.
