Mapping your Ancestors
About
This month for Twilight Talks, Helen V Smith will be joining us to share the benefits and methods of mapping your ancestors.
An important part of putting your ancestor in context is being able to visualise your ancestor in place. Whether this is a street address and their sweetheart is two blocks away, whether in a trench on the Western Front, a migration path across land or sea, the road, rail networks of the time or the topographical map showing the physical layout of the land they lived, all give information on their place. With the increased online access to world maps both current and historical there has never been a better time to add maps to your genealogy no matter where and when your ancestor lived.
Helen V Smith is a speaker, DNA specialist, researcher, and author with a strong interest in Australian, English, medical and social history. She has spoken in person and online in every state and territory in Australia, in Canada, USA, New Zealand and England, on 18 Unlock the Past cruises and has regularly presented for Legacy Family Webinars. She is a member of the Association of Professional Genealogists and the Genealogical Speakers Guild.
