Every Friday we're pleased to offer Legacy Family Tree Webinar subscribers a new bonus webinar just for them! This Friday enjoy "The Anatomy of BMD: What You Don’t Know About Vital Records" by Gena Philibert-Ortega. If you're not a member, remember the webinar previews are always free.
Everyone knows about vital records, right? It’s one of the first record sets you look for in the hunt for your ancestors. But do you know everything about those records you seek? What do you do when no records exist? This presentation looks at the history of vital records in the United States, discusses analysis of those records, and vital record alternatives.
