Several free webinars will be offered this week covering the topics of farm records, Netherlands research, genetic genealogy and Civil War research.
The Wisconsin State Genealogical Society will present “Reconstructing the Lives of Our Farming Ancestors” on Tuesday, July 16 at 8 p.m. It’s a rare family tree that doesn’t contain at least some farm families. What was daily life like for our farming ancestors? Learn how genealogical records and social history resources can help us answer that question in four different centuries of American history.

Legacy Family Tree Webinars will present “Lesser Used Records for Research in the Netherlands” on Tuesday, July 16 at 2 p.m. The Netherlands has excellent records. Records of births, marriages, and deaths were kept by the civil registration since 1811 and by churches since the early 1600s. Genealogists who don’t look beyond these records may create trees that go back ten generations, but they can be bare or have mistakes. By expanding the research to lesser used sources, we can learn more about our ancestors’ lives and find evidence of family relationships to build reliable conclusions.

The Utah Genealogical Association will present “Voting Records: Genealogy’s Best Kept Secret” on Thursday, July 18 at 9 p.m. Looking for a date of birth or death?

These often-overlooked gems can be packed with genealogical information, and you won’t believe what they can tell us about our ancestors!
