SEQUIM — The Clallam County Genealogical Society’s Speaker’s Series will host a day-long seminar on Saturday that features Jill Morelli, who will explain the methodology of “Becoming a Genealogical Super Sleuth” in a series of four lectures.

The program is available both in-person — at Dungeness Lutheran Valley Church, 925 N. Sequim Ave. — and on Zoom. It starts at 9 a.m. and ends about 3 p.m. Those attending the seminar at the church are encouraged to bring a lunch. However, snacks and beverages will be available.

Registration is $45 for genealogical society members, $50 for non-members and couples. Payment also can be made at the door.

Morelli is a nationally-known genealogist and lecturer.

“Her presentations are always well-organized, interesting, instructive and entertaining,” event organizers said. “She loves to share the serendipity her research reveals about our families. Her love of teaching and engaging with attendees of her lectures and workshops are apparent.”

For information about the schedule and the four presentations, visit clallamcogs.org or call 360-417-5000.
