Did you know that there is such a thing as a National Genealogy Hall of Fame? There is, and the National Genealogical Society (NGS) is looking for someone whose work merits their inclusion. Do not nominate yourself, as you have to have been dead for five years to qualify, but there are quite a few other awards to consider. Librarians, high school students, scholars, volunteers, and authors of articles, books, and newsletters are eligible to enter. NGS membership is required for some but not for all categories. Prizes include money, publication, free online classes, and travel to an NGS conference. Click here for information and entry forms. The deadline is December 15 but these are annual, so if you are not ready to nominate yourself or someone else, put it on your to-do list for 2019.
