The Indiana State Library’s popular Genealogy and Local History Fair will return in-person to downtown Indianapolis on Saturday, Oct. 22. The free event will take place from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. in the library’s History Reference Room.

This year’s theme is “Family Drama: Researching Your Complicated and Unconventional Ancestors.” Presenters will use case studies to illustrate research techniques and contextualize family stories within the larger scope of history. Attendees will also be encouraged to visit the exhibition hall to collect information from genealogy and local history organizations and to shop the commercial vendors.
