Provenance & Proof: Advanced Strategies for Finding and Using Manuscripts In Your Research
Kelly RichardsonManuscripts are more than historical artifacts; they are silent witnesses that can transform your genealogical research. This session will explore how to locate and analyze valuable manuscripts, including minister journals, lawyer notebooks, personal papers, and unpublished family histories, found in both major repositories and local collections.
