Most genealogists dream of one day visiting the “homeland,” but it is not an endeavor to take up without a good amount of planning. The amount of preparation you do can make or break this potentially one-in-a-lifetime experience. Speaker Diana Crisman Smith is very knowledgeable on Danish genealogy and will provide us with many useful tips and pointers on having a successful research trip to Denmark. Diana has been giving genealogy lectures since the 1980’s, has written for numerous genealogical publications, and has both written a book and contributed to several others.

One of the greatest resources we have as genealogists are the stories and memories of our family elders, but sadly each day that passes means we may have less of a chance to gather information from the previous generation. But sometimes getting started with family interviews can be daunting: where to begin, how to do it, making time.
Join us for some fantastic strategies, tips and inspiration for conducing quality and fun family interviews, as well as how to safely preserve and document what you learn. We will also learn about documenting family heirlooms.
Speaker is Heather Nelsen, the Vice President, Education Coordinator, and Newsletter Editor for the National Danish-American Genealogical Society.
