ABOUT THE PRESENTATION

Learn the details of a long-term project revolving around the collection of information on a group of African Americans in a specific community into a major database of integrated genealogical data, using WWI cards, vital records and newspaper material as the core, with the goal of constructing, in essence, the genealogy of a community. Audience members will see how building such a database can be a worthwhile endeavor for any serious researcher, and result in the creation of a written history of the community.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
