Amazingly early in your research, perhaps with your census or BMD transcripts, you can already start to make the connections between people, places and events that will help you to build an understanding of your place and help others to understand and make use of what you have found. In this presentation, real examples will be used to explore the world of possibilities that exist when you begin to analyse your data and pursue those ‘ah-ha’ moments when new knowledge is unearthed. Topics such as population, occupations, migration, religion and many more provide endless opportunites for a voyage of discovery.

English DNA Matches: Tools for quickly building modern trees
Wed, December 3 2025: 1:00 UTC
Many English DNA matches have rudimentary online trees. Learn about online resources for quickly and inexpensively extending the trees to find possible connections. Many North Americans have limited or no understanding of twentieth century online records that can be used to extend rudimentary or no online trees for their English DNA matches. There is a big need to be able to get the trees far enough back in time to possibly find the nearest common ancestors. This presentation will look at the different record groups explaining, with examples, how to use the different records together, and the time periods for which they are appropriate.
