Researching Scottish Ancestors talks series from NEHGS

The US based New England Historic Genealogical Society (www.americanancestors.org) is running a series of weekly Scottish themed seminars for Americans with Scottish ancestry from March 30th-April 27th. The following is a description of the five sessions, which will be given by Rhonda R. McClure and David Allen Lambert:

Scots have been migrating to and settling in America and Canada for centuries. Today, there are an estimated 25 million Americans of Scottish descent. Tracing your Scottish heritage is rewarding, but not without its challenges. This five-session online seminar will provide you with key historical context, strategies, and resources setting you on the right path to trace your ancestry back several generations in Scotland.

The cost of the event is US$125. For further details, please visit https://www.americanancestors.org/events/researching-scottish-ancestors.
