Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from International Congress of Genealogy: Held at San Francisco, California, U. S. A. July 28, 29, 30 and 31, 1915 The International Congress of Genealogy, which held its meetings in the Exposition Memorial Auditorium at the Civic Center of San Francisco, July 28th, 29th and 30th, 1915, was conceived in the active circles of the California Genealogical Society in the autumn of 1912. From the day of its conception, the idea grew within that Society and soon a committee composed of its most active members was working in full harmony with the Bureau of Conventions and Societies of the Panama-Pacific International Exposition to get in touch with the leading genealogists of the world and with the chief genealogical, historic, patriotic and family organizations to induce their co-operation and affiliation. The Congress was held at the time originally outlined, was composed of delegates representing sixty-six (66) organizations from various portions of the United States and from other countries, which named 297 delegates to attend and participate in the Congress. It was generally conceded by those attending or taking an interest in the Congress, that it was more widely representative, truer to its original purpose, and more successful in the culmination of its conceded sentiment than any first gathering of world organizations ever held. The International Congress of Genealogy appealed to no mercenary or commercial spirit, but was a worthy attempt by the promoters to delve deep into the sentiment of those upholding truths of the past, in a first attempt to get them to assemble, to agree upon certain methods of endeavor, to perfect standards of work and records, to exclude the spurious, the ill-gotten and the unproved, to exchange views regarding more systematic procedure, and to consider the value or relative importance of heraldry, eugenics and other problems seeming to have connection with genealogy.
