Thank you! This webinar was so clear and so well delivered that it sparked off lots of ideas, and it covered many aspects of "church records" that went far beyond the church registers. Much appreciated.
Thank you for all these strategies and it gives me good ideas to continue my research!
I found all this info that was presented by Sunny was the most informative and useful of all the marathon webinars! Thank you for sharing exactly how you arrived at each example solved.
Great information for finding more details about my relatives that were ministers.
Always like to hear Sunny's enthusiasm and case studies are always a great learning resource.
Ms. Morton shared a ton of information in a short time - would like to purchase her book now. Thank you for this webinar.
Very good explanation and examples of an often overlooked source of information.
Really enjoyed this one!
