Scott County Iowa Genealogical Society: Brick Wall Breakthroughs
Scott County Iowa Genealogical Society and the Richardson-Sloane Special Collections Center of the Davenport Public Library visits you to attend "Brick Wall Breakthroughs" presented by Thomas MacEntee.
Want to see first-hand how to break through that persistent “brick wall” in genealogy? Using actual research problems submitted by webinar attendees, professional genealogist Thomas MacEntee will walk participants through a step-by-step research methodology process to find clues and possible solutions. Participants will have access to research logs, digital images, and more during and after the webinar. Also included is a “habit recipe” to implement the same techniques used in the webinar on your own genealogy research.
