Writing Your Family Story: Learning to Assess and Compile Your Research In-Person / Online
Writing our story and that of our ancestors is truly a key result of a genealogist in the 21st century. The stories need to be written with either our voice or our hands. As genealogists we must get out of the habit of “hunters n’ gatherers” and learn to assess and then compile to write the stories that we are finding. This program will teach you the keys behind these components so that you can move to becoming a researcher and a storyteller. The speaker is Emily Coffman Richardson, Genealogist with KinSearchers, Director-At-Large, TxSGS.
This lecture is available online or in-person at the Family History Research Center at the Clayton Library Campus. Registration is required.
This is the seventh speaker in the daylong Genealogy Day at Clayton event held October 18th. No recordings will be available after the event.
