Webinar: Chasing Down Your Ancestors’ Locations
Speaker: Pam Vestal
When: Tuesday, June 13, 2023 at 8:00pm Eastern
Program Description:
Where did your ancestors come from? Where did they disappear to? Although finding locations can be the key to following our ancestors back in time, we often slam up against brick walls. In this talk we’ll explore practical strategies for tracking down our ancestors’ whereabouts by using collateral research, gazetteers, the law, image searches, maps, and loads of unexpected and underused resources.
