SLIG 2019 Course Highlight: Exploring Native American Research

Instructors:

  • Rick Fogarty
  • Billie Stone Fogarty, MEd
  • Paul K. Graham, CG, AG
  • Melissa Johnson, CG
  • Paula Stuart-Warren, CG, FMGS, FUGA

Course Description: Many people have stories of Native American ancestors in their family history but do not know where to begin breaking down these brick walls. This course is designed for both the genealogist trying to get started and those who want to learn how to assist others in searching for Native American roots. Over the last several years, digitization of Indian records and advances in DNA testing has helped open new areas of tribal research. This course will provide instruction on what to look for in identifying a potential native ancestor, give practical guidance through the research process, and demonstrate how to analyze evidence for proof. A research project will be assigned to help attendees use the techniques they have learned in the course. 

Level of Instruction: Intermediate

Registration: Registration opens Saturday, 7 July 2018. For more detailed information please visit www.slig.ugagenealogy.org.
