Program
Karen Hoel gave an excellent presentation - Using History to Turn Paper into People.
She encouraged us to create time-lines to fill in interesting things that may have had some effect on the person or family being researched. Many questions can be answered with this method, since our social and cultural customs have changed so much. Thank you, Karen!
