"The Mysterious Death of Anna T. MacPhillips"
(Webinar)
ZOOM MEETING
Presented by: Thomas MacEntee
ABOUT THE TOPIC
Can a mysterious family photo with a cryptic message on the back lead you to an amazing story of love and loss? Starting with a family photo, learn how you can plan your genealogy research to find out more information about the photo's subject including vital record information, newspaper articles, and even circumstances that you might not expect! You'll also learn how to track your research and use solid research methodology to evaluate records.
ABOUT OUR SPEAKER
What happens when a "tech guy" with a love for history gets laid off during The Great Recession of 2008? You get me, Thomas MacEntee, a genealogy professional who's also a blogger, educator, author, social media connector, marketer, network builder and more.
Thomas was laid off after a 25-year career in the information technology field, so he started his own genealogy-related business called High Definition Genealogy. Currently Thomas shares many of his articles and videos for free at GenealogyBargains.com!
"I'm a lifelong learner with a background in a multitude of topics and I've finally figured out what I do best: teach, inspire, instigate, and serve as a curator and go-to-guy for concept nurturing and inspiration. I believe in success, and that we all succeed when we help each other find success.
I see things differently than most in the genealogy field; I'm almost never content with the status quo. That doesn't mean I chase after change just for the sake of change; but when I see an opportunity to improve something and to bring more people into the genealogy sphere, that's where you'll find me."
