Chicago Genealogical Society Webinar: 

Travels with My Sister:  Genealogical Journeys 

Our speaker will be Caron Brennan.

Traveling to a significant location in your personal history can be a very satisfying experience. Seeing the homes of your ancestors, walking the paths of your people and seeing the geography that informed their existence can be moving as well as helpful to understanding them. This presentation uses Caron's real-life adventures of traveling to do genealogical research.

Caron loves history, biography, puzzles and a good mystery, which makes her perfectly suited to genealogy research!  She has been researching her family history since a 6th grade school project got her interested. Caron’s only vice is genealogy so she has subscriptions to many resources including Ancestry.com, MyHeritage.com, Genealogybank.com, Fold3.com, and Newspapers.com. She is also a big fan of free sites, her most used being FamilySearch.org.

Caron belongs to several local and regional genealogy groups as well as being a member of the Genealogical Speakers Guild and a Professional Member of the Association of Professional Genealogists.  She is currently the Society Liaison for the Illinois State Genealogical Society; Facilitator for the Chicago Region of the Association of Professional Genealogists (APG) and Web Master for the Chicago Genealogical Society.  She previously held Board positions at the Illinois State Genealogical Society, the Chicago Genealogical Society and CAGGNI (the Computer-Assisted Genealogy Group of Northern Illinois).

When not working at her day job, researching her own family tree or making genealogy presentations, Caron may be researching for others or writing for her blogs! 

The program handout will be posted in the members only section of the CGS website the day before the webinar under the Webinar Archive tab.

The webinar will be recorded and saved in the members only section of the CGS website for future viewing.
