The presenter’s knowledge base was/is incredible. I appreciate their willingness to share.
An outstanding primer for advocating for records retention, accessibility, and funding for the groups that manage and store the records for us.
Happy to learn there are groups to join that are working to fight for us.
what a great talk, I learned so much. Its scary what the guys with power want to do.
Wow! Alec’s passion definitely comes through and makes me want to sign up to join in the Advocacy for Genealogy “fight”. Thanks so much for all your efforts in the genealogy field Alec!
Alec presented a really fascinating topic with up-to-date curent legislation, advocacy and current state news. Webinar was packed out with important areas of interest for all levels of geneology research. Thank you!
I arrived late so I will have to rematch this great webinar. What an amazing wealth of knowledge. Thank you.
As a genealogist, I’m so thankful for Alex Ferretti in helping to keep historic records available to the public. Sometimes, people don’t realize these records have been sealed until it is too late. Thanks so much for this wonderful program.
