Whether you’re just beginning your family history journey or looking to break through research roadblocks, this seminar will give you the tools and confidence to move forward.
This session focuses on two essential goals:
- Tracing your family from North America back to Scotland
- Tracing your family within Scotland
In addition, you’ll learn proven research methodologies and discover trusted sources for accurate historical records. As well as gain clarity on which sources should be taken as a guide and not as a source of historically accurate data. Ronald will provide a live demonstration of how to use ScotlandsPeople and other Scotland-based resources, plus share recommendations for software to help you organize and preserve your family data.
Seminars will take place online via Microsoft Teams.
Cost is $25 per seminar. Each seminar is a standalone session.
