CGS Announces September Webinar

The Art of Negative-Space Research: Women

Our speaker will be Jeanne Larzalere Bloom

September 12, 2020 at 1:30pm CDT

Like using negative space in art, the successful identification of women is often accomplished by using the records of friends and family. A case study demonstrates how to successful use this technique.

Jeanne Larzalere Bloom is a full-time professional researcher specializing in Chicago and Cook County research, forensic genealogy, problem-solving, and multi-generational family histories. On behalf of the Department of the Army, Jeanne searches for and identifies family members of unaccounted for servicemen from World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War. Jeanne writes articles for scholarly journals and society publications. She is a frequent lecturer at conferences, workshops, and institutes.

Registration is required via the Chicago Genealogical Society website under Events. The webinar will take place virtually via ZOOM. All people registered will receive an email one day prior to the event with log-in instructions and a link. This information is not to be shared.
