SUMMARY:2024 MGC Fall Family History Eventwith Angie Bush\, MS
DESCRIPTION:The Michigan Genealogical Council\, with our partners the Archives of Michigan and the Library of Michigan\, proudly present Angie Bush for a one day seminar\, Saturday\, November 16\, 2024 in-person in Lansing or online with Zoom Webinars. \nAngie Bush\, MS is a research team manager with AncestryProGenealogists in Salt Lake City. Her team specializes in U.S. research\, Canada\, and Irish and Scottish immigration to North America. Angie has been interested in her genealogy since she was very young. After college\, she spent several years working in biotech while continuing to pursue her genealogy hobby. With the growing popularity and introduction of autosomal DNA testing in 2012\, she decided to combine her two loves into one career. Her favorite type of research involves solving decades-old “brick walls” using a combination of traditional records and genetic evidence. She is a popular speaker and presenter and enjoys attending conferences where she can connect with others who share her passion for genealogy. \nEric Kennedy is the Law Reference Librarian for the Library of Michigan. He holds a Bachelor of Arts in Telecommunications from Michigan State University. Eric also has a Master of Library and Information Science degree from Wayne State University. Prior to joining the State Law Library\, Eric has worked in both academic and corporate libraries. He was the Reference and Administrative Services Librarian at the Thomas M. Cooley Law School’s Brennan Law Library\, the Access Services Librarian at Wayne State University’s Arthur Neef Law Library\, and a Reference Librarian at the law firm of Honigman Miller Schwartz and Cohn. \nKris Rzepczynski is a Senior Archivist at the Archives of Michigan\, where he specializes in family history and Michigan research. Kris has worked in the genealogical community for almost 25 years. He is a former Vice President of Membership for the Federation of Genealogical Societies and a Past President of the Mid-Michigan Genealogical Society. \nJoin Angie\, Eric\, Kris\, and MGC for these exciting topics. \n9:15-10:15 am\nIs DNA the Tool For You? with Angie Bush\nDNA has helped many genealogists make breakthroughs in their research that they never thought possible. But these breakthroughs are only possible because the research question was one that DNA could help to answer. Learn about the types of questions DNA can help you answer\, and the types of questions DNA can’t help with. \n10:30-11:30 am\nNavigating the 1890 Gap: Research with State Census Records\nwith Kris Rzepczynski\, Archives of Michigan\nGiven the near-total loss of the 1890 U.S. Census\, state census records frequently serve as an effective substitute. This program will explore these underutilized resources\, focusing primarily on the available schedules from across the United States from that time period. \n11:45 am – 12:45 pm\nThe Best DNA Tools with Angie Bush\nThere are several tools provided by the testing companies and a plethora of third-party tools developed by others to help you make sense of your results. Learn which tools are most valuable and how to use them to successfully make sense of your DNA results. \n1:30-2:30 pm\nMichigan Legal Research with Eric Kennedy\, Library of Michigan\nMichigan Legal Research using both print and online resources to find primary legal authority: cases\, statutes\, regulations\, court rules\, and ordinances. The presentation will also include the Special Collection of Michigan Legislative History resources. \n2:45-3:45 pm\nPractical Applications and Case Studies with Angie Bush\nIn the final session of the day\, we will share case studies and real-life examples of how DNA test results were integrated into complex family history questions. We will talk about how DNA validates information in historical records and how to correlate genetic and historical evidence to solve challenging mysteries. \nThis one-day event is one you will want to attend! \nPurchase ticket online \nFlyer and mail-in registration form \nTo see the latest MGC events\, please go to the mimgc.org Event Calendar.
