🔵 DID YOU KNOW?
Did you know that you can find all of your favorite genealogy webinar series on our calendars? Legacy Family Tree Webinars, FamilySearch Library in Salt Lake City, BYU Family History Library, American Ancestors, NYG&B — and of course lots of genealogical societies and public libraries! We really have the most complete calendar of genealogy events available!

🔵 FREE VIRTUAL FAMILY HISTORY CAMP FOR AGES 11-15
This July, the National Archives Museum will be holding an online, week-long camp, one hour per day, to introduce the basics of family research. It’s free, but you need to register. Details here.

🔵 ROOTSTECH WRAP-UP
FamilySearch has put together a nice article with links to what is still available to do and watch from RootsTech 2024, including Relatives at RootsTech (until April 1), keynotes and other highlights, and even a free Global Families Recipe Cookbook. You can read it here: https://www.familysearch.org/en/newsroom/view-inspiring-sessions-from-rootstech-2024

🔵 FREE ACCESS TO IRISH RECORDS
For St. Patrick’s Day, MyHeritage is making all their Irish historical records available for free from March 14 to 18, 2024 – all 14 million of them. https://www.myheritage.com/irish-records

🔵 SO MANY REASONS!
The NGS Virtual Family History Conference, “Expanding Possibilities,” will be May 16-18 this year, and is definitely not to be missed. With an entirely virtual event, you don’t have to make those hard choices between which program to attend — registrants have access to ALL classes, taught by some of the best speakers in genealogy, until August 15. Friday’s plenary session features Steve Little, NGS AI Program Director with “Artificial Intelligence and Genealogy: The First Year and Onward!” Another speaker will be announced soon, and just know it’s one of everyone’s favorites! Details here.

🔵 NO RECORDS? NO WORRIES!

Whether the courthouse burned, the clerk tossed them, the relative, autograph hunter, lawyer, or surveyor took them, they succumbed to heat, humidity, insects, fading ink, war, or distance from the courthouse, which was a barrier to their creation – the records that we want, the records that could answer our questions – sometimes just aren’t there. Learn more about what to do and how to find records when they seemingly appear to have vanished in this air. Register for Records Loss: Overcoming Destroyed, Missing or Non-Extant Records at GRIP. For more information and registration see the GRIP website: https://grip.ngsgenealogy.org/courses/records-loss-overcoming-destroyed-missing-or-non-extant-records/
