Great case study! I laughed about the reference to the Stith lady who married her husband cousin!
Thank you for this great webinar on Virginia research and finding a female. I have females in Virginia and your information will help me hopefully to break my brick walls.
Fabulous, both in presentation and methodology techniques! Love a case study. I wish there were some using Irish records, particularly Ulster area using Griffith's and back from there.
Excellent presentation and research clearly explained. Thank you
A fascinating look at finding Elizabeth's family. Really enjoyed how the presenter put all the puzzle pieces together. Great job!
Clear concise articlate. Good suggestions; have to apply them to Ontario.
I will be watching this again while workin on my colonial VA & NC ancestors. Well presented. Thank you
This was one of the more excellent presentations (and presenters) I've seen in a while, but Legacy impresses every time. Thank you so much!
