AUBURN — The Androscoggin Historical Society will conduct a workshop for people interested in tracing their family roots at 1 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 16, at the Auburn Public Library Community Room.

This is the newest of the society’s popular workshops, which are intended to help genealogy enthusiasts.

The workshop leaders will be John Henderson, who will discuss resources available at the library’s local history room, and Beverly Robbins, who will discuss tracing Revolutionary War ancestors. Both are members of the AHS board of directors.

Henderson has researched and published a genealogical line, which led to researching, writing and publishing a book of six biographies, which in turn led to researching, writing and publishing a community history. He volunteers at the library’s local history room.

Robbins is regent of the Mary Dillingham Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution. She will be accompanied by Willoughby Wight and Mary Jane Densmore, both longtime DAR members and officers of the chapter who have spent years researching Revolutionary War soldiers.

The public is invited. There will be no charge for admission, although donations will be accepted.

The next AHS program will be March 26 at 7 p.m. in the society’s headquarters on the third floor of the Androscoggin County Courthouse. Henderson will discuss some of the Irish women who had roles in the Lewiston/Auburn community.
