The Record Newspaper 19 Sep 1997 ________________________ The Waterloo Branch of the Ontario Genealogical Society has shared space in the library since 1983 making its volunteers and publications part of the GSR resources for genealogists who travel to KPL, especially in the summer, to research their families. "The OGS volunteers are amongst the most dedicated people I have worked with: Norma Huber, Gordon and Rosemary Ambrose, Frances Hoffman, Thelma Barnes, Sharon Downey, Dave McKnight, Sharon Neville - and many more. Working with these folks has been a pleasure, and certainly a bonus for the GSR," Susan said. Former co-workers Ryan Taylor, Pat Kauk, Linda Brown-Kubisch and Anne Abohbot are remembered for their work in the GSR. Waterloo Kin 2006 Vol 6 No. 2,3
