This course will give the participant an overview of forensic genealogy and the role of the genealogist in these types of cases. We will discuss some of the major types of cases in which a forensic genealogist may be involved, such as guardianship, oil and gas, unidentified and unclaimed persons, and probate. The role of the forensic genealogist as an expert witness will also be discussed.

Great webinar!!
I am an CA attorney who does probate, and he summarized the various state laws very well.
I am going to look into this field.
I found it very interesting and if I wasn’t 77 years old I would pursue it as a career!!!
I found the webinar very intriguing.
I had no idea what forensic genealogy was about and it was an interesting learning experience.
I learned alot about this profession and many things to consider as an individual who has a will and thinking of the future.
I would’ve have liked to see sample forms/research log. Perhaps that’s in the bonus webinar. I’ll take a look. As always, thanks for a genius service. 🙂
Interesting to learn about even though I don’t think I would do it.
INTERESTING TOPIC
Interesting!
Interesting. Not really my cup of tea, but definitely an interesting area for professional genealogists to explore.
It was very informative. Kelvin is very knowledgeable.
It was well presented and the speaker obviously knows their topic it was just a subject that did not interest me greatly. I had misunderstood what was meant by a Forensic Genealogist this seemed more about an heir hunter
Kelvin did a great job making this topic accessible to those of us unfamiliar with this field
Kelvin Meyers is an incredible resource that I hope will return with more webinars in the near future!
Learned more about the Military

My grandfather leased his land in Huntington Beach to the oil companies. I need to look at the deeds. Thanks for all the good information!
Presentation was interesting and clarified my understanding – I thought forensic genealogy would concentrate on using DNA to solve crimes.
So interesting! My f-i-l did this type of work for the county of LA and made lots of money!!! !
Thank you, very informative
The speaker is easy to listen to, and his presentation was full of information and terms that I haven’t met before.
This was a fantastic and timely subject! I have been struggling with what area of concentration I want to pursue professionally, and Kelvin just lit the way for me. Thank you both for a great webinar today!
