   I always enjoy a practical, hands on, “this is how you do it” presentation. Thanks!\n\nI am going to try the Master Tree that she talked about to help me with my DNA matches. I have been using a spreadsheet but it causes so much confusion that it is not practical. I enjoyed the case studies... that has given me some ideas about how to sort through my no tree problem (although I've been using shared trees for ages) Great webinar!\n\nI can't wait to see and listen again on today's webinar was Fantastic! And I hope that Michele Leonard comes back to update us with some new information that she is waiting for, on her last case study! Combining DNA and Traditional Research is a must see!!!\n\nI enjoyed this seminar. I always learn something new from the Legacy webinars. Thank you.\n\nI have a known Scotland line. Always thought it was too difficult to research. With the tips, search suggestions and other webinar suggestions I am more encouraged to get started. Thank you!\n\nI learned so many subtle techniques and sleuthing tips for building Matches’ trees.\n\nI love case studies! Thank you\n\nI think there may be a different solution to the last example, but I'll have to watch again. Will definitely watch again. I think I am using these techniques already, but it is wonderful to see someone else explain them so I know I am not crazy. Thanks!\n\nI think this is the most helpful webinar I have listened to date.\n\nI will listen again and recommend.\n\nI wish I could give her a ten! One of the best webinars I've seen here and one that I will definitely watch again.\n\nI wish there was more time for more quest ions.\n\nI'll have to watch it many times to follow the logic, but that's OK.\n\nI'm glad I'm a webinar subscriber so I can view again and stop it frequently. Michelle crams a lot of material into a short time period! Excellent material.\n\nI'm not completely up on DNA, but it made sense anyway. :-)\n\nInformative and well presented. It was full of ideas to help further my DNA research.\n\nIt was a great webinar\n\nJust a little fast. But presented great processes on how to proceed. \n\nLooking forward to hearing more from the presenter.\n\nLot of good tips and ideas to explore.\n\nlots for great info\n\nLots of great information! Perhaps she could have had one less case and talked a little bit more slowly. The content was easy to follow, but the presentation moved VERY quickly.\n\nLots of information packed into one hour. Will need to re-watch the webinar to better understand.\n\nLove Michelle Leonard, her presentations are terrific!\n\nLove this presenter, she is always so good\n\nLoved it! I learned a lot and confirmed I'm on the right track with my methods. Thank you very much!\n\nMichelle is so articulate, made the instructions much more easy to understand. I’m so glad to find out about the Master Tree—learn something new every day. Thanks so much.\n\nMichelle Leonard - first time listening to her webinars. Very impressed by her command of the subject and her ability to explain a complicated subject in a more simplified way! Great job!\n\nMichelle Leonard is an excellent presenter. Her webinar was very helpful and easy to follow. I will continue to follow her tips; sticking to one paternal and one maternal master tree that is private and unsearchable and doing the research. Looking forward to her upcoming webinars and revisiting this one over and over. Thank you!\n\nMichelle Leonard is experienced, well informed, and a really great trainer. I learned so much!\n\nMichelle Leonard is such an enthusiastic presenter. She included so much information that a re-watch will be necessary.\n\nMichelle was brilliant! She makes working through the complicated relationships seem so much easier than I've found it. I do really like the creation of a master or temp tree. It seems a useful idea. She's a excellent reminder to be persistent. I'm pretty good at triangulating to which quarter of the tree my match might be from, but \nif it's not easy to go from there, I usually just leave a note and move on. I did however manage to unite my 1st cousin with daughter he didn't know he had.\n\nMy husband turned on webinar for me as I was going to be late joining. The parts I was able to see/hear were fabulous. I thought Michelle was a lovely red-headed Irish lass, but behold, she is a lovely red-headed Scot. \n\nNeed to learn more and then listen again!\n\nOne of the best webinars I've ever heard. I will definitely watch this again and try to put into practice some of the strategies I heard.\n\nOutstanding, must watch again and purchase Michelle's book.\n\nOutstanding. This should motivate anyone with even a passing interest in doing this kind of research.\n\nPhenomenal! Thank you so much! \n\nReally good detailed information on strategies to break down brick walls or unknown ancestors. I was late to join but would definitely watch the recorded version to absorb more information even if I wasn't late. Thank you Michelle!\n\nRemarkable!
