their meeting and program. "Rubik's CubeR Genealogy: A New Twist on Your Old
Data" will be presented by Elissa Scalise Powell, CGRS. Twisting your data
through the three dimensions of source, geography and chronology lets you
perceive holes and discrepancies, and allows you to see further clues and
conclusions you may have missed before. Some of the items to be discussed
are: timelines, genograms, lineage society applications, land platting, and
writing the family narrative. First Families of Western Pennsylvania lineage
