Saturday, May 4 hybrid - Waves & Ripples: Irish Immigration Patterns To and Across North America

By Mary Wickersham, professional genealogist
10:30 AM - Noon CST
$15 for IGSI members; $20 for non-members 

Knowing the arrival dates and places of your ancestors, and tracking their movement within North America, will help you to develop theories about their migration motives and guide your research focus. Mary will provide an overview of Irish migration patterns and demonstrate how to leverage this information for the search for your ancestors.

Mary started doing genealogy research professionally in 2003 after researching her own family history for over 20 years. She has lectured extensively, including immigration topics such as ship manifests, Ellis Island and Castle Garden, and naturalization records. Mary is experienced in researching Catholic Church records in the US and Ireland, Midwest (Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, the Dakotas) vital records, French Canadian records, and other resources. She also has language skills in Spanish, Italian, and Latin. 

The webinar will be recorded, and all registrants will get access to the recorded event.
