How Do I Know That's Right? Evaluating Genealogical Evidence
  • November 04, 2019
  • 06:30 PM to 08:00 PM

Heritage Quest Research Library

We welcome back Mary Kathryn Kozy for her class:
"How Do I Know That's Right?  Evaluating Genealogical Evidence"
What does a genealogist do when there is so much data and some things conflict? Or what does one do if there are only a few data points and they don’t agree? How do you know which one is right? In this presentation we’ll define the various types of evidence and discuss ways of evaluating them to come to a sound conclusion. A case study will help illustrate how points of evidence can come into conflict and demonstrate methods for resolving that conflict.
Fee: $20.00 members / $25.00 non-members
