Celtic Special Interest Group

The Celtic Special Interest Group is for anyone with Scottish and/or Irish ancestry. If you are doing genealogy research in either of these countries, come join us! Our members have a wealth of information to share.

The Celtic Special Interest Group usually on some fourth Saturdays at 10 am. In the 2025-2026 season, the meetings will be held in September, October, November, January, February, April, and May.

The May meeting will be held by Zoom only as our tech person is not going to be in town on that day. The meeting details and Zoom invitation will be sent out a few days prior to the meeting by Stephanie to AFHS members who are on the Celtic SIG distribution list. If you would like to attend as a guest, email communications@afhs.ab.ca at least a day prior to the meeting.

The topic for this Celtic Special Interest Group meeting is Prominent Calgarians that had Irish and Scottish backgrounds presented by Elizabeth Rodier.

Our special interest groups are a member benefit, but we welcome visitors! If the meeting is being held at the resource centre and you live in the Calgary area, please just come and introduce yourself. If you would like to attend a Zoom session as a guest, please email communications@afhs.ab.ca to receive the Zoom invitation (no later than 24 hours ahead of time). Please say you are requesting a guest invitation for a Celtic SIG meeting and include the date.
