This course focuses on genealogical research strategies, organization, core record groups, analysis, in order to put them into practice. It is a foundational course to give you tools to begin or re-invigorate your research with classes including early American handwriting, developing research plans, land records, behind the scenes with censuses, court records, probate, church, and military records. We utilize hands-on workshops and analytical challenges throughout the week. Classes are taught by experts in the field; no prior genealogical experience is necessary.
Offered on Mondays, May 17 to June 21, 2027.
