   Thank you very much for making your resources accessible to all of us.\n\nThe smartest librarian on the web!\n\nThere was a wealth of sources to further my research on my german families.\n\nThis gave me some new ideas about where to look for the information I have not found.\n\nThis was one of the best webinars I've attended. I have several 1709 Palatine ancestors and am searching for specific places where they lived in SW Germany. This webinar gave me new resources to explore.\n\nUntil now I've just accepted info on my Palatine ancestors from a few published books, but now I'm encouraged to look for more details on them. And it's put me into the right mood for a banquet tonight of the Kingston & District Branch \nof the United Empire Loyalists' Association of Canada - because many of the Loyalists, including my Palatine ancestor David Dulmage, took the British side in the American Revolution and came to what would become Canada as UE Loyalists in \n1783.\n\nVery clear and thorough\n\nVery clearly articulated and presented.\n\nVery good info, especially on the websites outside the U.S. I didn't save the chatlog soon enough and am hoping I can still get back to it.\n\nVery Good presentation and presenter. Clear, concise and organized!\n\nVery helpful to have the notes by Marian in the chat log! Thanks.\n\nVery informative syllabus and an excellent presentation. Webinar to review again & again.\n\nVery informative webinar. Lots of information and well delivered. Thank you!\n\nVery informative. Fast-paced and interesting.\n\nVery interesting presentation -- and very impressed by the range and depth of the materials cited.\n\nVery valuable resources. She covered most of my favorites and suggested some new ones to search. THANKS!!\n\nVery well presented and very informative. I was very happy that she provided lots of information on online sources.\n\nVery well versed on the subject and provided informative information.\n\nWhat a great resource for learning about Palatine ancestors....thank you for all of the suggestions and links shared. Wonderful!\n\nWonderful information .. Thank you so much.\n\nWonderful, knowledgeable presenter & a huge amount of useful information! I can't wait to get started looking for my German ancestors again!\n\nWorth watching just for all the sources/books listed\n\nWow! These just keep getting better and better! Awesome! I hope I can locate my German ancestors.\n\nWow!!! So much information and so many sources to check out. Will be busy for a long time. Thank you, too, for terrific syllabus.
