"All About Find A Grave"
Find a Grave is an easy-to-use website where we can document where
our ancestors are memorialized and were buried. The information on the website
and headstones provide valuable genealogical information. In this session, we
will learn the different ways in which we can participate and utilize Find
a Grave.

research since 1984. She holds certificates from the National Institute for Genealogical
Studies, with an emphasis on American and German genealogy. Kathy is a member

Secretary and on the Social Media Team for the SCGS.

"Missing: Reward! Locating Widows, Spinsters, and Bachelors"
Have some of the folks on your family tree disappeared? Pick up some new ideas
on how to find widows and unmarried children and then watch these techniques in
action in three short case studies.
