In the March edition (episode 2 of Season 9) of the “This month at the IGSI” podcast, genealogist Dave Miller begins the episode by providing the date for the March “Irish Saturday” event, scheduled for March 9th.

Dave also talks about the March webinar to be hosted by genealogist Joe Hunter. Joe’s presentation on March 23rd is titled The Mysterious George Hunter: persistence and methodology prevail! Joe will discuss breaking down the brickwalls when researching this elusive ancestor. Some ancestors can be very difficult to find. Joe will display alternative research methods that can compensate for missing and incomplete records. These ‘indirect evidence’ techniques may help break down those stubborn research mysteries. By applying the Genealogy Proof Standard, Joe will discuss how to establish the building blocks for approaching a “brickwall” challenge.

Dave also interviews three coordinators and planners for this summer’s Irish Festivals. They will talk about their plans for not only the month of March but also for this summer’s events and when they began the planning process for their Irish Festivals! Dave announces the dates for many of the Irish Festivals throughout the U.S.
