Workshop Dutch Genealogy

26 April 2012 by Leave a Comment

On April 9th, I gave a workshop "Dutch Genealogy" at the Sheboygan County Historical Research Center. Since it would be a bit much to travel 4,000 miles to do so, I gave the presentation using Skype. I’ve now uploaded my slides so all of you who weren’t there can see what the presentation was about. 

The slides cover these topics:

  • Different important sources
  • Finding your immigrant ancestors
  • Tips per province (Gelderland, Zeeland, Friesland: the 3 provinces where most Dutch people in Sheboygan come from)
  • Using Genlias and WieWasWie
  • Search tips

Enjoy!
