Census Reports Lead To…

On September 7, our guest speaker will be Seema Kenney of Seema-ABLE. Seema has been working in the genealogy field professionally since 2010, having completed the Boston University Genealogy Research Program. She is currently the Secretary for NERGC (holding the genealogy conference in Springfield in 2017) and is the president of the Worcester Chapter of the Mass Society of Genealogists. 

She will be presenting on the many crossroads one’s research might take after finding a family in the census. This presentation will make connections between data from the different census years and data to look for in twenty-seven other resources. The census gives you location which leads to City Directories. Ages and genders lead to possible military records. Every fact on the census hints at another resource direction.
