Census records are the bread and butter of genealogical research. A census enumeration anchors your ancestors in a time and place, but also offers clues to family migrations and family dynamics. You might just reveal blended families, clues to migration routes, and relatives “in the hood.” Expect census errors and double enumerations. Wonder how to make sense of pre-1850 tick marks? Let’s discuss.
You can enjoy this presentation at the live event in Minnesota or as part of our virtual audience. The presentation will be followed by a Q&A and discussion until the scheduled end time, when the broadcast and recording will stop. Attendees at the live event can linger for social time after the program, and have the option of ordering a box lunch in advance. Can’t attend the live broadcast? Register anyway and get a free link to the recording and handout.
