A New Learning Curve
As you might have noticed, that I am gaining my creative skills, as I design our new TGS website. I’m learning as I go, experiencing the trials and tribulations of mastering WordPress.com. Unfortunately, my cat has also wanted to dabble in web design, as he hijacks my keyboard, or mouse on occasions ……

A Wonderful Way to Get Involved
TGS needs members/volunteers to fill vacant board member slots within the organization.
The Tower Genealogical Society is run by volunteers. We are grateful for the few members that have stepped forward and volunteered. But, many more members / volunteers are needed. Do you happen to have skills or talents that would be helpful to TGS?
Then please consider volunteering….
TGS sincerely appreciates the willingness of Laurie Tower to join the board.
One Member’s Story
Posted on 07/04/2013 by JCB
I happened to make my Tower Family connection, somewhere about 2001. As I started researching my paternal grandmother (Laura Josephine Tower), little did I know what I was about to discover about her ancestors.
After a brief online search, I located contact information for the TGS, Inc. (then/2001) president Lester Tower, and then I placed phone call to him.
I felt a bit foolish asking him, are you related?
Without hesitation he said yes! You are related, and I know who your are, AND there are other Tower relatives living in your area! WOW!
Lester put me in touch with the other Tower relatives. They shared with me loads of compiled data, memories and information on my family line, all the way back to John Tower (1), born in 1609.
I am forever grateful to those fellow Tower relatives who so freely shared the Tower photos, information and data with me.
This family tree is in full bloom, busting out with a very heritage, and unique history. There is plenty of researching yet to be done, relatives to discover, photos unturned.
And, if I may ask, could it be that you are you related, too? If so, why not consider joining us?!
Please see the membership information. I am the current Tower Genealogical wannabe webmaster, Tower Talk editor, TGS Facebook Moderator, Janine Battistone.
If you have any questions, information or ideas related to The Tower Genealogical Society, Inc., than please to feel free to contact me or any of the other Directors of The Tower Genealogical Society.
