Jim Thornhill will speak on Migration Through the South
Join genealogy society leaders from across Texas for this full-day event focused on topics and issues relevant to managing and leading a genealogical society in today’s environment.
One of the biggest challenges in genealogy is the pursuit of female ancestors. This is because the women were so often absorbed into their husband’s families (assuming they got married), taking on their husband’s surnames, and losing their original identities in historical documents. Pat Gordao will show us how to overcome these challenges.
