Genealoy Family History Presentation
Yesterday I did a Genealogy/Family History presentation.
Where I discussed only a few aspects of the
research. It was more about inspiring these
folks. It was not an audience of seasoned
genealogist. Although a few are.
I did tell them that Family History is moving at an
extreame fast rate. You have so many resources available. Less then 25% of our research now you don’t have to step out side your door if you
have internet access.
I Listed out some free sources
Free genealogy sources:
Familysearch.org a wealth of information so many avenues
to check out.
Find A Grave.org
Intermment.
A Grave Matter.com
GenForum.org message board
Genweb *****[the state your looking for]
Rootsweb.org
Seeking Michigan
Type in a ancestors name into Google push the enter
button, something just might pop up.
Maybe a book a message borad post etc…
Of course I plugged making a family history blog.
With
the mention of Find A Grave there were several folks that told me they would
give it a try.
When
I was dropping off my son for BSA camp to a friends house the dad showed me on
his I phone. That Find A Grave had a photo of his Great Grandad & his grave
marker.
Yep Find A Grave has a lot of
information there. One of my favorite
places to look for an ancestor.

“Normans to Romans”
Michael Wood’s Story of England Online at PBS video PBS.ORG
Wow what a fantastic program don’t look at PBS for a month and wow so
many great genealogy things appear. Great
treat.
Kibworth is a Village in central England with a historical dig. Volunteers go on their own property. Plot out
one small area and dig downward.
Victorian era items are found first. Then as they dig deeper well you will have to
watch for your self to see how far back they go.
DNA is also done for those now living to find out where their Ancestors are really from. Family trees are
shown. Its all about the local people that are in Kibworth England now and those who
lived there Long Long Ago.
It’s history from the local
people point of view. Oh what fun. Who’s names are Norman & Whos are
English. Along with that Frenchmen.
The opportunity to know more of your Town History & Family History when cameras
come to Kibworth how lucky.
Oh yea do you ever get to find out about the Mound?
Watch and enjoy.
