Stories of Us: Hidden in the Records is a free virtual genealogy workshop exploring the stories, clues, and family connections that can be uncovered through historical records.
Historical records can tell us much more than names and dates. Through storytelling, practical genealogy education, real family examples, and live discussion, participants will discover how individual records can reveal details about the people who came before us and how those pieces can come together to tell a larger family story.
Plus, join us live for a chance to win. Eligible participants who register and attend the live workshop on October 22 will automatically be entered into our event giveaway. No purchase or donation is required.
