08. Genealogy—Finding Ancestors Along Migration Paths (Southeast U.S.)


  • St. Matthew’s Episcopal Church, Rm. B-18/19 8134 Mesa Drive Austin, TX, 78759 (map)

We will focus on historical and genealogical research for families who migrated through the Southeastern U.S. The states where research may be highlighted include Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia. As we go state by state, we will use FamilySearch Research Wiki’s Migrations section, delving into each state’s trails, routes, and paths. We will also learn to utilize AI for historical content and context, and locate and use historic maps.
Genealogical records will be searched as the class moves along the migration paths. Laptops can be used in class if desired but are not required. A one-time fee of $5 is requested for handouts. 6 classes. Limit 24.
