Filling in the Stories of Our Female Ancestors

Zoom: ReferenceJoin Pam Vestal for this genealogy program focusing on female ancestors.
For most of recorded time, women didn't leave much of a paper trail, but they still have wonderful stories to tell. We'll look at ways in which local history, laws, politics, cataclysmic events, military records, probate inventories and other resources can help.
Pam Vestal is a professional genealogist and speaker who turned her focus to her longtime love of genealogy after a 20-year writing career. She specializes in conducting genealogical research and then turning that information into illustrated stories that even non-genealogists can enjoy. Her articles have appeared in the Association of Professional Genealogists Quarterly and the FGS's Forum magazine, and her lectures take her from coast to coast.
