Finding Ancestral Home Towns as Part of an Interest in Heritage Tourism
Tuesday, March 10
Finding Ancestral Home Towns as Part of an Interest in Heritage Tourism  (Monthly Meeting)
7:00 pm
Have you ever dreamed about taking a Heritage Trip to see your Ancestral Hometowns? To walk where your ancestors once walked? Heritage trips can be among the most meaningful you ever take. Yet, genealogists often struggle to place their ancestors in an area more specific than a nation, region or county. This webinar will discuss the best sources and strategies to pinpoint the exact place from which your ancestors hailed so you can begin planning the trip of a lifetime.
Laura Scalzitti is a professional Genealogist and Case Manager at Emrich International Probate Research, where she specializes in building documented family trees to identify legal heirs in intestate probate cases. Prior to joining Emrich in 2023, she spent eight years at the helm of her own genealogy company, History Runner. There she worked closely with families to uncover personal histories and place individual stories within broader social and world history contexts.
