6. TPGS Member Scrapbook & Pedigree Chart - Member Marlene Hardman started a member scrapbook a few years ago. Marlene takes photos of each member and puts it in the scrapbook along with a copy of their 3-generation Pedigree Chart. The scrapbook is available for viewing at every meeting and is housed in the TPGS Library. All interested members are asked to give their pedigree chart to Marlene. If you haven't had a photo taken, let Marlene know.
