Looking for a date of birth or death? When and where your ancestor became a citizen?
Voting records may have the answer. These often-overlooked gems can be packed with genealogical information, and you won't believe what they can tell us about our ancestors! Learn how to make the best use of these records from Pam Vestal, professional genealogist and speaker.
She will present "Voting Records: Genealogy’s Best Kept Secret" at 1:00 p.m. MT on Tuesday, September 19.
After a 20-year writing career, Pam re-focused on her longtime love of genealogy. Her articles have appeared in the National Genealogical Society Magazine, the Association of Professional Genealogists Quarterly, and FGS's Forum magazine. She also lectures, speaking from coast to coast. Pam specializes in conducting genealogical research and transforming that information into illustrated stories for non-genealogists to enjoy.
