    WOW !! Thanks so very much for this fabulous informative webinar. Although I have very little research to do in USA, I always learn something every time I listen to your webinars. This time it is learning about looking into the history of the place my relatives lived. Also about the “Autovalue” site, and on & on.

    Angela presented an excellent overview of the records available for the Three Civilized Tribes of Freedmen covered in the webinar. She is a walking encyclopedia of Native American Freedmen knowledge!
