    Just great, as always! I really hope you have managed to persuade ESM to carry on with the series next year as I love these webinars. I don’t think I'll ever match the standards Elizabeth sets out, but I hear her voice all the time now, encouraging me to be a better genealogist.

    Always looking forward to ESM's webinars! I'll defenitely rewatch to take better notes and apply them in my research. I'd also want to learn more about Sebastiano Sammarco aka Salvatore Brocato that she mentionned in this webinar... Please, please, pretty please!

    Elizabeth is the best. I always learn something new. She makes me rethink what I have been doing to solve those questions or breakwalls. I so hope that Elizabeth will continue her series again next year. I am sure she has more tips, tricks and wisdom up her sleeve that she can share.
