This year we're meeting at The Pinnacle Center on 32nd Avenue in Hudsonville for 4 presentations by Judy Nimer Muhn, Ed.M., FSA Scot

Researching in Canada: Your Maple Leaf Connection!
The records of Canada – both Anglophone and Francophone – are rich with information of the settlement of North America, resulting in the country now called Canada. The settlements of the French and English date from 1604 and reflect the history of these populations also in Europe. Learn about how to connect across the border and the records that can help you!

Native American, First Nations, Indian: Researching Indigenous Peoples
Family legends often tell of an ancestor who was the daughter of a chief or some other Indian relationship. Come and find out the truth, myths, facts and information about how to determine if your family descends from Native or First Nations people.

No Dead Ends: Finding Your Way Through Family Roadblocks
No genealogist works their way through their family history without coming across the challenges of what looks like a dead end: no records, no obvious next step, unidentified parents and more. Learn about the tools, techniques, and ways of thinking of professional genealogists to find ways to get around those road blocks and continue your ancestral journey.

Seeking A Higher Source: The Resources of Faith Communities
Key events in our ancestors’ lives were often documented in the faith communities in which they worshipped. Exploring the records and their importance across faith communities, Judy will provide information on the types of records, locations of archives and access to records, and the key ways that these records can enrich your family’s history.
