Scotland research
In April, FamilySearch will offer a similar series about Scotland Research. Topics include maps and gazetteers, websites, census records, civil registration, probate records, poor law records, emigration, and land records.
Wales research
In July, the Wales Research series will include naming patterns, improving your Welsh research by using place names and Gazetteers, online research, church records, and probate records.
Ireland research
If you missed the Ireland Research series offered in September, you can now download the handouts. The archived webinars will be added “shortly.”
More information
There is no need to pre-register to watch the live webinars. You may watch one or two or the entire series.
Details about the webinar series, handouts, and how to attend are available on FamilySearch’s Online Webinars from the British Isles Team web page.
