Great presentation. I wish I had this when I was taking my Paleography class. Gave me some ideas on how to work with difficult to read documents.
This is a good one
Great Webinar clearly presented. Oftentimes things presented in these webinars are things we already know or have thought about, but never tried. Bryna gave us some great tips to get started.
I appreciate Bryna's well organized webinar and her speech cadence and inflection. These elements made for a pleasant and efficient learning experience. Thank you!
Thank you so much I will try to establish those tips on archive documents in Russian and Yiddish languages. Best Regards. Ola
Great webinar, brought up good tips on diciphering handwriting.
Good presentation with many fine examples for a difficult subject.
Good tips. I have used most of these tips over the 40 years that I have been doing genealogy, but it is nice to be reminded of techniques to try.
