Shelley Bishop, Professional Genealogist
will present a live online zoom seminar:
Finding Ohio Ancestors Before 1850
Researching Ohioans before the advent of birth and death records and an every-name census presents a challenge to genealogists of all skill levels. Yet by employing time-tested research methods, seeking out some lesser-known resources, and understanding how to work with evidence, you can overcome difficulties caused by the scarcity of early Ohio records.
