Pres ident ' s Le t te r

Now that the Board of Directors of this Society h.as made it possible for l i b ra r i e s , and organizations that do not publish a quarter ly , to secure the Quarterly of the Austin Genealogical Society, we hope to reach an ever increasing group of readers .

We a r e proud of the forward looking group which organized the Austin Genealogical Society, and the members who a r e devoting much of their t ime to the advancement of the Society and the program planned by the Board of Di rec tors , which ranges f r o m the recruit ing of new members , to r e sea rch , to the program which makes possible the acquisition of reference publications and census microf i lms.

W e have been favored f o r the entire t ime that the Society has been in existence with outstanding editors for the Quarterly. We have also been fortunate in our program of' exchanging th,e Quarter ly for publications of other societ ies , and in the work of the l ib rar ians over the years .

We hope that a l l who a r e interested in searching for their ancestors will join with u s as members , and as active participants in a l l phases of the program, including assist ing the Vice-president in charge of the monthly meeting programs in securing future speakers of the cal iber of those in the past . members , a lso, those who live outside the Austin a r e a , who can only receive the Quarter ly and the benefits of association by mail. A l l who a r e interested in genealogy a r e invited to join with u s in the program of the Austin Genealogical Society, and in the continued improvement of the organization for the m u t u a l benefit of all members and those who receive the Quarterly on an exchange basis . We welcome you as members and your suggestions and ideas at a l l t imes.

We solicit a s

With bes t wishes, on behalf of the Society, fo r your continued success in your own re sea rch and ancestor hunting, I remain

Sincerely yours ,
