Livestream: American Archives Month with Genealogist Tina Post

Genealogy helps us see where we come from and connect our personal history with the bigger picture. While many people research their genealogy as a fun and challenging hobby, professional genealogists build their careers on discovering family connections, uncovering the truth of family stories, and assisting their clients in navigating archival research. In this livestream interview, Tina Post, professional genealogist, will share her insights and experiences from over 20 years of researching genealogy. This livestream is free, and will be available on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/schenectadyhistorical/live/ No Facebook account is needed.
