February 26 Legacy Webinar

Kirsty Gray is the presenter for Wednesday's webinar. She is a British researcher who specializes in one-name studies. The title of the webinar is "Searching for Surnames: Challenges, Pitfalls and the Downright Ridiculous."

Here's the description of the subject matter:

"With increased indexing and transcription of records, often linked to digitized images on free and commercial websites, searching for an individual or collecting references to everyone holding a particular surname is much easier now, isn't it? Using a variety of sites to try to discover details about those elusive ancestors, creative searching is a must and this webinar will uncover some of the investigative methods needed as well as the more challenging transcriptions the genealogist has to work with, whilst still being enormously grateful that they are available to us online!"

The webinar is designed for beginner to intermediate researchers. As usual, visit the Legacy website at www.familytreewebinars.com for more information or to register to watch in "real time."
