About this webinar
We pour a lot of time, money, and soul into our family history research. So, we want to make sure we are tracing the right people and families in the right place at any given time, and that we glean all possible information and clues from the records. This presentation reviews social and cultural customs, and tools for learning about jurisdictions and key terminology. It is suitable for those still new to Mexican genealogy as well as more experienced researchers.

I think Colleen did a wonderful job but for my purposes, I was more interested in the genealogy; i.e., naming conventions, determining relationships, availability of records, etc.
Brilliant webinar with lots of great ideas for further researching our early ancestors in the US
I learned so much that I would have not though of....GREAT webinar!!!!! Look forward to more.
What an incredible wealth of knowledge Colleen brings to us! Thank you Family Tree Webinars for bringing to us this second year of Mexican genealogy presentations. Keep it going!
Very good, a little drawn out in the way she spoke, but perhaps was talking slower due to people from all over the world.
Mexican genealogy is new to me, and I really enjoyed the historical information provided, as well as the naming convention explanations. I'm looking forward tos the rest of this series!
Absolutely wonderful and so detailed! Loved it!
Although the webinars run long, they are always packed with so much knowledge, techniques and tidbits. Well worth the wait.
