The Genealogical Society of North Orange County
presents
RUTH GOVORCHIN
Jogging Down Memory Trails
If you don’t write your memoirs, your grandchildren and great-grandchildrfen will never know. And if you don’t start jotting down memories, maybe even you won’t know--or at least be able to remember at a crucial time. Our program is not a writing lesson; rather, it is a memory lesson: helping us better pinpoint the important--and the trivial--in our lives.
Ruth Govorchin has been deeply involved in genealogy for 40 years, conducting research virtually full-time since her retirement as a Special Education teacher. The holder of five teaching and administrative credentials, she earned a B.A. in Liberal Studies from CSU Long Beach and an M.A. in Educational Administration from the University of San Francisco. Ruth has also earned the University of Toronto’s Professional Learning Certificate in Genealogical Studies and is currently working to become a Certified Genealogist. She is a member of NGS, APG, UGA, the Southern California Genealogical Society, the Orange County California Genealogical Society and, of course, GSNOCC, where she was recently elected President. She previously served as Program Chair and as chair of GSNOCC’s annual seminar for 11 years.
