This year, the RootsTech genealogy conference has morphed from its last two years’ online-only format into a hybrid event,
meaning in-person attendance is now possible as in earlier years. The significant online element has widened
the event’s reach and made it more inclusive to those around the world for whom
a trip to Salt Lake City is out of the question.
It also means that speakers don’t need to be on the ground at the
conference, either.
Which is why for the third year running I’m able to contribute to the hundreds of video classes showing from 2nd of March onwards (or 11pm on the 1st if you’re in the UTC time zone). This year, I’m giving the following presentations:
10 Sources for Researching Your Scottish Ancestors - Without
Certificates
Learn about the best resources to use to track down
your Scots ancestors when birth, marriage, or death certificates aren't
available, or are hard to find. Many of these resources are free to use.
Frugal Family History - Tips for Tracing Your Family Tree on
a Budget
Tracing your ancestors need not be an expensive activity.
Learn about many of the free resources that can be drawn on to grow your family
tree.
Killing Off Your Ancestors - 10 Sources for Identifying Deaths
Even though your ancestors may
have lived long ago, finding out about their deaths can teach you a lot about
their lives. Discover the many sources of information which will shed light on
this important part of their history.
These videos will be available for at least twelve months, alongside my previous presentations for RootsTech. You can find them all at
https://www.familysearch.org/rootstech/speakers/alison-spring/en
Each talk has an accompanying syllabus or handout which you can download from the same RootsTech page as the video, containing links to the websites I refer to.
Do get in touch with me if you have any questions about any of these RootsTech talks.
