    I am so impressed with this presenter's vast knowledge. Saturday I watched his webinar about Confederate Pension Files in the Capital District (New York) Genealogical Society's webinar series. His presentation style is engaging; he has ready answers to the questions. Great webinar!

    Personally tracking ancestors and relatives from both Plymouth and Massachusetts Bay Colonies dating back to Roger Conant's arrival and migration through New England. This seminar provided valuable insight into research guides and sources beyond those already known and used. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

    This was a good review of various research sources and will be valuable to beginning genealogists. I will follow the progress of The Great Migration Directory to determine if I can find additional information on my New England ancestors.
