The Florida State Genealogical Society will host a free webinar, The Discriminating Genealogist: Telling Good Evidence from Bad, presented by Judy G. Russell, on Thursday, April 25, at 8:00 p.m. Eastern time.
The “best evidence” rule in law requires the presentation in court of an original rather than a copy, and a copy won’t even be admitted if the original is available. In genealogy, our rules require us to do the same: to discriminate, choose in favor of, prefer certain types of evidence to others, certain bits of information to others, certain sources to others.
Register here to watch the live webinar. A recording of the webinar will be available afterward for society members only.
