Membership Benefits . . .
W.I.S.E.
members enjoy a variety of activities which enrich their understanding
and enjoyment of family history research. Our monthly programs cover a
wide range of British and Irish subjects of interest to family
historians. Typical topics: the history and significance of tartans,
members' research trips to Britain and Ireland, the influence of the
Irish in Leadville, Websites for British Isles research, a musical
program by a Welsh singer.
Genealogy Friends
Perhaps
the most striking benefit of membership is the social relationships
which develop among fellow genealogists. We especially encourage active
membership by those who are new to the genealogy community and wish to
"get involved." We have learned that people who are just retiring from
their working lives have a great deal of energy and experience that
transfer beautifully to family history research and activities of our
society.
We're a Bargain
W.I.S.E. membership costs $12 a year per person;
$15 a year for a
household. Inclusive in the membership fee is a subscription to our
quarterly
newsletter, W.I.S.E. Words. Each household
receives an electronic copy of the newsletter each quarter by
email. For an additional $5 a year, members can receive a paper copy
via
U.S. Mail.
