\"Malissa_Ruffner\"<\/a>Sunday, May 25, 3:00 pm \u2014 <\/strong>Finding Family History at the Baltimore City Archives \u2013 Malissa Ruffner<\/a>
\n<\/strong>Malissa will give a brief history of BCA \u2013 from the earliest days to its current association with the Maryland State Archives \u2013 and give an overview of its holdings. She will describe the kind of genealogical information you might find, how to prepare for a research visit, and what to expect when you arrive.<\/p>\n

Malissa holds an MLS degree and worked as an archivist before heeding the call of genealogy. She was a volunteer at BCA for several years and has conducted personal and client research on-site. She currently serves as an at-large board member of the Maryland Genealogical Society and launched its Facebook page in April 2013.
