About this webinar

Most genealogists know to look in a cemetery to find their ancestors, but what about the funeral home? Funeral home records can provide loads of genealogically rich information. This presentation will teach participants what types of records are typically found in funeral homes, how to locate these resources online and "in the field", as well as provide real life examples of how to search for ancillary clues in funeral home records.

    This was a great webinar! I finally got to it because I’m needing death information for a particularly hard to find ancestor. Dan made me laugh several times, and he also gave a lot of good information. Maybe I’ll find that death information.
