Next Steps With Your Family History
Get ready to go beyond the basics in your search for your family history. Marcie Crocker will talk about the use of research logs, timelines, maps, and more. She will also touch on why you might want to put some time into the history of the area and the languages that might be found in the area, as well as why you might want to research other family members and neighbors.

When census and vital records fail to find an ancestor, newspapers are one of the favorite places genealogists look next, and digital newspapers make the research infinitely faster. Few sources can reveal the details of our ancestors' lives like newspaper articles - from birth announcements, engagements, court cases to death notices, obituaries, and local histories.
