Workshop: Help Me Find My Revolutionary War Ancestor
Speakers: Terry Briggs and Dick Ferman
Co-Sponsored by the Santa Clara County Historical and Genealogical Society
During this workshop, questions will be addressed about how to locate, research, and document your Revolutionary War ancestor. Guests can pre-submit family trees with questions to be evaluated by by the group, helping provide constructive, real-life, direction. Numerous resources will be discussed to find Revolutionary War ancestors along with strategies to find crucial, and often elusive, documentation.
Final question to be addressed: “What is the cheapest, best, and most foolproof way to verify lineage back to before 1750?”
