Chula Vista Genealogical Society Meeting on Wednesday, 26 July Features Amy Johnson Crow

 Wednesday, 26 July 2023, 12 noon PDT

CVGS General Meeting (in a Zoom Video Conference)

Program Speaker:  Amy Johnson Crow on 

"Finding Ancestors Before 1850"

Pre-1850 research can be difficult. The federal census does not list everyone in the household by name and many localities do not have civil vital records. This session will explore some record groups and research strategies for moving your ancestral lines beyond the mid-19th century.

Amy holds a Masters Degree in Library and Information Science from Kent State University. She has held a Certified Genealogist® credential since 1995. Amy has worked at Ancestry.com, served as the series editor for the National Genealogical Society Guides, published by Rutledge Hill Press, and was the co-author of Online Roots in that series.      
Amy is the author of 31 Days to Better Genealogy, a resource guide filled with practical tips you can put into practice right away, as well as more than 40 articles in various genealogical publications. She has presented at genealogy’s top events, include RootsTech and the Federation of Genealogical Societies annual conference.  Her website is Amy Johnson Crow, and her YouTube channel is Genealogy With Amy Johnson Crow.
