January 2026 General Meeting

J. Mark Lowe: Finding Uncle John's Grist Mill, His Neighbors and That Cemetery Using Maps, Records and Stories

A recording and handout from the meeting were available to OGS members for one month after the meeting.

PROGRAM:

Topographic maps and soil maps should help us identify a community, including neighbors, ferries, mills, cemeteries, historic houses, and many other landmarks. By using a combination of resources, the picture of this community will be more visible and more clearly understood.

SPEAKER:

J. Mark Lowe describes himself as “born to be curious.” He is a professional genealogist and educator who specializes in original records and manuscripts throughout the South. He coordinates “Research in the South” courses at IGHR, SLIG, and TIGR, worked on several TV series, a YouTube channel, and does webinars.
