Presentation Information

Title: Our Black Sheep and Their Prison Records

Summary: Family trees often have ancestors that are not “acceptable” topics of conversation. But why is that the case? A common reason is they were in trouble with the law. We will explore three different case studies on how to use newspapers, online searches, archives, legal papers, and more.
