School Daze: Finding Family History in School Records

School Daze: Finding Family History in School Records In-Person

Join us in the Learning Lab at the Willennar Genealogy Center for a presentation by Lori Samuelson. Ms. Samuelson is an educator, researcher, writer, and speaker. She blogs weekly at GenealogyAtHeart.com with a focus on sensitive subjects and heartwarming genealogical finds.

The presentation will include a brief history of education in the United States, followed by an explanation about where to obtain school records and documents and what kind of data can be found in them. In addition, several cases will be presented showing the importance of acquiring your ancestor’s school records.
