Exactly what I needed today, yesterday and tomorrow! Thanks for sharing your expertise. : - )\n\nFabulous webinar! Thank you!\n\nFantastic ideas for brick walls that I can apply right away. Thank you!\n\nGood practical information and well told tales\n\nGood Presenter and helpful and encouraging.\n\nGood webinar. Gave me LOTS of ideas on my hardest brick wall.\n\ngreat as usual!!!\n\nGreat ideas to relook at again.\n\ngreat information\n\nGreat information! It is also nice when someone agrees with me ...I am a disorganized, unfocused, BSO chasing amateur genealogist. However, I am learning. \n\nGreat information! Love the checklist of records etc to check!\n\nGreat tips! Thank you.\n\nGreat to remind us about being a science not an art.\n\nGreat webinar! I knew what I should do, but I keep forgetting things. This reminded me so well. I need more like this.\n\nGreat webinar! I learned a lot. \n\nI applaud the presenter with covering so many different brick walls in a succinct manner. I do wish she addressed language barrier brick walls but if it is something she has not experienced, I understand why she did not cover it. \n\nI appreciate how well Rebecca presents research basics and breaks the steps down simplistically when it's so very involved. I start to tip into overwhelm. Her presentations help bring me back to focusing in focus! I relate to the comments about DNA cousins & contacts taking us down rabbit holes. It's so difficult to prioritize when there could be wonderful information clues in the contacts... Time Management is a must... Oh My!\n\nI continually need the reminders to stop and write down the way I analyzed the data and the conclusions I drew. The tables are a great way to compare confusing items. Now I need to put it all into practice. :)\n\nI learned a lot and appreciated the things she had to share.\n\nI really appreciate the suggestion to add historical events to the timeline. I am going to add some into the timeline I have created for my current research project. I think that will be very helpful. \n\nI'm going to try some the ideas right now. Thx\n\ninformative, thank you\n\nInteresting alternate ways to research a problem.\n\nIt is good to be reminded of where to look, when we think we have looked everywhere.\n\nLots of material. Nice syllabus.\n\nLoved it!! What expertise the experts have!

   Motivated me to stop researching, analyze and write ! Also use charts and tables and other graphic organizers for my research.\n\nNice overview of all those important things we need to remember - not only record groups, but analyzing evidence.\n\nOne of the best I've seen here on brick walls.\n\nOne of the best webinars I have taken to date!\n\nReally good reminder of basic research areas to check for ancestor records. Focusing exclusively on a single brick wall will probably be the hardest thing to do, but it is the logical way to demolish that wall. I will have to give it a \ntry soon. \n\nRebecca Whitman Koford's webinar on brick walls was simply excellent. If I could give a 10 rating, I would. I couldn't take notes fast enough so I'll be watching it again. These types of topics are those that give me the greatest benefit \nto my webinar subscription.\n\nShe is excellent. Very well organized and excellent slides!\n\nSince I am now 88 I find my memory is failing. I need all the help I can get because when I started doing my research I didn't know many of the things I should do. Now I am going back to correct my lack of documentation. All of this webinar really helped me. Thanks.\n\nSuggestions and examples were excellent\n\nThank you for all the great info!\n\nThank you for many good ideas for staying focused and really analyzing sources and implications for your tree.\n\nThanks for all the great tips! The Research Checklist is awesome, it will really help me. \n\nThanks for the reminders about using research logs, etc., and new (to me) info about making a table of the same-name folks found in research. \n\nThanks, very informative and great syllabus!\n\nThe speaker's enthusiasm was evident and the points well explained.\n\nThis was a wonderful presentation! Will be watching it again, probably several times.\n\nThis webinar offered some much needed hand holding in guiding me past my own inadequacies in breaking through my brick walls. Thank you so much!!!\n\nTotally a great guide to follow on how to not create a brick wall. I loved it.\n\nValuable information\n\nvery clear presentation, just enough examples to inspire while not slowing things down.\n\nVery helpful hints. \n\nVery inspirational.\n\nVery thought provoking! Already thinking of resources I hadn’t considered previously. Thank you\n\nVery well organized and useful - am familiar with the research techniques but got new ideas on organization and how to use them\n\nWell done! Great reminders! Thanks to Rebecca, Marian & Legacy\n\nWell done.\n\nWell laid out.\n\nwonderful way to work through the research & organization process! Thanks\n\nWonderful webinar! Very informative and great presenter :) Thank you!\n\nWonderful!
