CCGS Members Only - Legacy Family Tree Webinar "The Best of Elizabeth Shown Mills"
March 22, 2024 11:00 am - 12:30 pm
Clark County Genealogical Society, 3205 NE 52nd St, Vancouver, WA 98663, USA
- Elizabeth Shown Mills, CG, CGL; Census Clues: Sweet Potato Simon, White Potato Willie, & Cows that Grow Wool; Census records are the most used—and yet the most underused—of all genealogical resources. Every major provider offers them, along with an index so we can easily find our people. Aside from a year here or there, when a pesky ancestor seems to have eluded the census taker, the use of censuses seems fairly straightforward: We use a search engine to find our person and we copy down the data. There, done! No. Not at all! Censuses provide “facts,” but in between those “facts” there are a wealth of clues we can mine to solve our worst problems with identity, origin, and parentage. This session is for advanced researchers who think they “already know all about census records” and for newer researchers who want to avoid the mistakes most researchers make.

- Jenny Hansen, AG, AGL; Which Hans Jensen is Mine? Navigating Patronymics in Scandinavian Research; The majority of ancestral Scandinavians shared a small number of given names and surnames. Following ancestors without becoming mixed up in the patronymic pot can be a challenge. This webinar will provide guidance for focusing on your ancestor and eliminating other possible family lines. We will answer the most common questions regarding ancestral patronymics: what are they? why are they used? and how do I follow my family and not the neighbors?
