We participated in a roundtable at last week's workshop where we shared a new discovery or a favorite website.
Maureen brought a baby book that she had rescued several years ago. She researched the baby and its mother and has found a grand niece of the mother who would like the book returned.
Nancy has been researching vital records in Canada and found an example of a 4th cousin who needed a birth certificate from the 1880s. She located the delayed birth certificate that had been filed for that cousin.
Debi had been trying to break down a brick wall regarding a g. grandfather who left the family. When she renewed her Ancestry membership during our meeting, someone had posted the death date for that ancestor!
Dennis recently found the arrival date for his 6th great grandfather in one of the Great Migrations books.
Royal was shown a four-generation photograph with his great grandmother's son from her first marriage and will be able to continue research into that family.
Diane used the Manitoba probate records mentioned in a FamilySearch demonstration to locate information about her great uncle.
Annie was using the Fold3 Civil War widow's pension files. One of the files contained full records of adoptions of two surviving children of a Civil War veteran.
