GERMAN GENEALOGY ON THE INTERNET: BEYOND THE BASICS BY DR. MICHAEL LACOPO

The Internet age has brought genealogy to our fingertips over the last three decades, and we can find our German ancestors easier. But it still takes some digging and know-how to find our elusive Germans. This lecture will discuss some online sites that all German genealogists should know. American sites will be covered, but a strong concentration on lesser-used German sites will be discussed, as we are missing vital clues by not being truly “international” in our Internet research endeavors!

Dr. Lacopo has spent decades building the expertise and resources needed to build solid, reliable information on family history and genealogy. Let his experience help bring you closer to a more complete family heritage.

Michael is proficient in reading German script and has a particular interest in immigrant ancestry-finding the clues that link our ancestors records across the Atlantic.

Access will be through GoToWebinar.  Instructions and Connectivity Link will be forwarded via email to all registrants upon registration, six days prior and again 1 hour prior to the event.  Making the connection is quick and easy only requiring a computer and Internet connectivity from wherever you chose to watch the event. Your questions help drive the meetings, and we will be there to help each other.
