Port Conversations: Genealogy & Cognitive Health

Port Conversations is a discussion group for community members interested in respectfully exploring current issues. Join us and guest speaker, Mary Patricia Voell of Legacies, LLC I Personal, Family & Organizational Historians for an engaging talk on genealogy & cognitive health.  The excitement over genealogy offers more than overwhelming files of names and dates. Ongoing evidence suggests the health benefits derived from mining the past. From improvement of cognitive funtion, bonding, decision-making ability, empathy, spatial awareness, and vocabulary are just a few of the positiveoutcomes derived from the study of our ancestral roots.
