Education

Presentations

I’m happy to provide one-on-one tutoring or presentations in the Wellington area and beyond. I am happy to do any of the components of my Genealogy Courses.

Available presentations include:

• Getting Started – For complete beginners, this covers the practical things you might not necessarily think of (also described as a good refresher for more experienced genealogists)
• Filling in the Gaps – Using Newspapers to discover your family history
• Where’d the Money Go? (Why I’m not rich) – Using wills and probates
• Sarah on the Genealogical Proof Standard – How to use this methodology to ensure you’re researching the right family (30 minutes)

Presentations run around 45 minutes unless otherwise stated.

I like to tell a story in many of my presentations and then finish off with a “how to” on finding the records for your own research.
