CLARKS SUMMIT — A workshop about ancestry will be offered by The Tunkhannock Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 22 at the Abington Community Library, 1200 W. Grove St.

Anyone with an ancestor who lived in the United States between 1770 and 1780 could possibly be recognized by the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution. Meg Venn, field genealogist since 2008, will lead the workshop, which is free, open to the public, and not limited to those seeking membership in the DAR.

Some of the many DAR projects, chapter, state, and national programs, will be on display. Members of the Tunkhannock Chapter DAR will be on hand to answer questions.
