If you missed attending the RootsTech 2018 conference in Salt Lake City, Utah earlier this year, there are still more presentations to watch online.
Lisa Louise Cooke has published two free 25-minute videos of presentations delivered at her Genealogy Gems booth in the marketplace.
The first video in her new Rolling Out the Red Carpet series, available on her Genealogy Gems YouTube channel, is Tips for How to Organize Your Online Life for Genealogy, presented by Ms. Cooke.
This video is packed with ideas that will save you time, make you more efficient, and result in higher quality genealogy research.
The second video is Finding German Villages for Genealogy and Family History with James M. Beidler. Researching your ancestors deep into Germany simply doesn’t happen unless you know the name of the village of origin. This presentation goes over the sources to tie your immigrant to a Heimat (Heimat (pronounced [ˈhaɪmat]) is a German word translating to “home” or “homeland”) and then find the village and its records.
