Very informative! I have German ancestry, and all 3 lines came to PA. What a treasure for me to listen to this webinar!! I'm so excited to find out more! James gave great information!!
Very Informative
James was fun to listen to today. I have German roots in PA also. I am looking forward to listening to the rest of his webinars.
Another outstanding program
Love Jim Beidler! So willingly shares the clues, shortcuts, whys & insights he has learned without making me feel intimidated as a "newbie" or somewhat- experienced, but on-the-path family historian. Love his complicated enough to make me learn something, but simple enough that I can grasp it at first-hearing style.
Having been frustrated in part trying newspapers, I will give it another go armed with a better understanding. Also build out those stories found.
Very interesting.
wonderful speaker and learned alot about the newspaper and I have been doing family searching for a few year and he answered way that I had not thought to find the information
