A WPHS Program Presented by Robert Hamlink Ring, Ph.D.

Gates Hall, 4107 Lake Road, Pultneyville, NY

It all began almost a year and a half ago with a modest website inquiry for information about a family known to have resided at one time in the Williamson and Wayne County area. Since that time, Rob Ring has left no stone unturned, and no clue unresearched, while putting together the puzzle of his family’s history. Beginning with oral histories and tracing ancestors from Holland to the U. S. here in Pikkleville (East Williamson), he has unearthed many local ties to our community. Based on his research, Rob has skillfully woven together a tapestry of his multi-generational family with the aid of visits, interviews, and research tools which he will share. Mark your calendars for Wednesday, May 7th,and join W-PHS for this engaging presentation about one man’s approach to building out his family’s story . . . a true labor of love which one day will be a special gift for his children.

While donations are accepted, this program is free and open to the public.

Along with his personal passion for tracing his family’s roots and Dutch connections, which he will share on May 7th, research has always been an integral part of Mr. Ring’s career.
