You are cordially invited to an online “wedding” reception – and
indexing party!
On Tuesday, Nov. 30, the Genealogical Forum of Oregon is sponsoring
an online event to index Multnomah County marriage records from 1917-1924.
Way back in 1981, the GFO acquired the county’s original marriage
register books for 1885-1924. Over four decades, dedicated
volunteers have indexed the registers to 1916. But we get many
requests in the “missing” years, so it’s time to finish the job!
For the first time, GFO is trying out our annual volunteer work party
as a one-day, interactive event entirely online. You can join the fun
for the whole day or even just an hour. You do not need to be a member,
just willing to dedicate a little time to support genealogy. For more
information and to RSVP, please visit http://gfo.org/givingtuesday
