2010 Ames Society Convention

Start planning now for our 2010 Convention.  We will be meeting in SALT LAKE CITY, Utah to take advantage of the Family History Library.  This library has an incredible collection of resources from around the nation and world. 

Aside from conducting research, the Salt Lake City area also provides us with the Golden Spike National Historic Site which commemorates the creation of the first transcontinental railroad.  Oakes Ames of the William Ames of Braintree line was one of the major players and this park is dedicated to him and all the others that made the achievement possible.   This event is celebrated on the back of Utah's state quarter.

As always, the Convention will be held in October.  Check back to this webpage as we get closer to the date for more details.  Members will have access to preplanning guides so they can get the most out of this fantastic opportunity.
