January Monday Evening Webinar
|
|
"The Missing Man: Brick Wall Strategies" was the topic for our first Monday evening webinar of 2021, presented by Sharon Hoyt, CG. Sharon pointed out the key points for your research. Plan, Names, Locations, Research, Analyze and Manage your findings. There are also many tools such as previous research, vital records, and family records. Are there military, religious, court, land, cemetery or occupational records? Don't forget the newspapers.
|
| Existing research can provide a good starting place, but don’t accept it without verifying it and that you agree with their conclusions. |
| The recordings and handouts are now available in the "Members Only" section of our website, under "Webinars and Meetings." |
