LaBrenda Garrett-Nelson will share best practices in using probate and other estate records to identify potential slaveholders. If you have identified the names of ancestors born during slavery and have stalled in your research, this lecture will help prepare you to break through the 1870 brick wall.
In the second of three lectures, LaBrenda Garrett-Nelson, JD, LLM, CG, CGL, President, Board for Certification of Genealogists, will discuss “Researching My Garrett Family History.” Each presentation will be limited to 70 participants. The speakers will be recorded, so if you are unable to join us on the scheduled dates, there will be other opportunities to view the presentations.
Panel discussion with Melvin J. Collier and Leslie Anderson.
