SUMMARY:It’s Not All Online: Researching in Archives
DESCRIPTION:“Statistics say that there is less than 10% of all the world’s genealogical records are online”. This statement has been said by many genealogy professionals and archivists\, including myself. The truth be told that percentage is probably more like 3%-5%. As genealogists\, we are living in a time when there are huge amounts of genealogy records being put online daily. We can do research in the comfort of our own homes with our pajamas and fuzzy slippers until 3 o’clock in the morning if we want to. Unfortunately\, we have been lulled into thinking that “everything is online”. When\, most of all genealogy records are sitting in repositories waiting to be discovered by the genealogist. This presentation will show why you need to contact or visit an archive and seek out those records that are not online. \nOur Speaker: Melissa Barker a.k.a The Archive Lady\nMelissa Barker is a Certified Archives Manager and Public Historian currently working at the Houston County\, Tennessee Archives. She is affectionally known as The Archive Lady to the genealogy community. She lectures\, teaches\, and writes about the genealogy research process\, researching in archives and records preservation. She conducts virtual presentations across the United States and other countries for various genealogy groups and societies. She writes a popular blog entitled A Genealogist in the Archives and is a well-known published book reviewer. She has been a Professional Genealogist for the past 17 years with expertise in Tennessee records. She has been researching her own family history for the past 32 years. \nThis program is a joint presentation of the Tri-State Genealogical Society and Williard Library \n  \nRegister for this event\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n Your name\n \n \n Your email\n \n \n Number of Guests
