    Wonderful ideas on how to research collateral relationships. I am hoping that researching will find where and when my elusive 2nd great grandparents died and also where my 3rd great grandfather was born.

    I loved the Webinar. Cheri researches just like I do...looking for everyone in the family and extended family and seeking out the stories. I have spent a pleasant time listening and hearing certain terms defined like Now Wife and the difference between Kith and Kin, etc. I look forward to hearing from Cheri again.

    Excellent presentation! I always felt like I was going down trails I shouldn't be going down when looking at aunts, uncles, siblings, etc. records but have learned so much about my family. Thank you for helping me realize I wasn't wasting my time!

    Cheri made me remember and reignited my interest in collateral ancestors. I'm not sure where it will take me but if I don't do it, I'll never know. Fantastic information that needs to be listened to over and over again! Glad I have a membership!!!
