Registration is now open for the 2023 NCGS Fall Conference held Saturday, October 28th in Raleigh or via online live-stream.
Experienced in traditional research, and lacking confidence in the use of DNA? Been struggling to create an effective plan that combines paper records with DNA testing to expand that family tree? Shannon Combs-Bennett has just the presentations for you. She is a published author with a Master of Science in Genealogical, Heraldic, and Paleogeographic Studies from the University of Strathclyde. In her busy 2023 schedule, she presented at the National Genealogical Conference in Richmond. Shannon has a deep interest in the history of lineage societies. She will share how they can assist in discovering genealogical information for researchers.
As a final inspiration, she will present a case study from Surry County, North Carolina. She will track the Brassfield Family, indicate the methodology used, and reveal errors in a popular television show that discussed the family! Come and enjoy the awards ceremony honoring North Carolina publications and outstanding service. Vendors will provide those tempting resources and the most current applications. North Carolina provides an inspiring atmosphere to share stories with fellow family historians.
As an extra bonus, all attendees registered for the in-person or live-streamed sessions will have access to recordings of all lectures for 30 days following the conference.
