with featured speaker, Blaine Bettinger

Beginning in 1978, the Nebraska State Genealogical Society has held an annual genealogy conference every year with the exception of 2020 due to the pandemic. Nationally known speakers have given presentations on all kinds of genealogical resources, research techniques and organizational methods. Many local speakers have also contributed their expertise on a variety of subjects over the years. We strive to make each conference informative and helpful to anyone with their family history research.
