Description

What kind of documents are available for your German ancestors? What should you be looking for in your research? ​​​​​​​And most importantly, where can you find these documents? Come learn the answers to these questions and more in this webinar with researcher and genealogist Katherine Schober. Handouts and resources will be provided. The presentation will be around 50 minutes with 10 minutes for questions at the end.

$20 for GAHC&M or DANK Haus members
$30 for non-members

The Zoom link will be sent to registrants one day prior to the event. The recording of the event will be available to view for 30 days after the event. 

Katherine Schober will take you through how to research effectively in your genealogy search. Born in St. Louis, she earned her Master’s degree in the German language through Bowling Green State University/University of Salzburg. She then spent three additional years in Austria, teaching English and translating German (with a focus on history). In 2014, she moved back to the States with her Austrian husband, and, although they are now in America, German is still the main language spoken in their home.
