"Genealogical Research in
Central and South America"
This program explains how to conduct genealogical research in Central and South American countries. It will include key record types, such as civil and church records, along with other records -- census and notarial documents. The presentation will also include information about paleography (handwriting reading) and language tools, alongside naming customs and historical context. Attendees will leave with a good understanding of the basics of how to conduct family history research in these regions, the tools to use, and where to look for the records.
