IN PERSON-Analyzing Your Research by Maureen Brady, September 12, 2024 7:00 PM (Central)

The gates to many research “brick walls” may often be opened by a thorough analysis of the records. Using examples of typical research documents, this presentation will demonstrate how clues for further research are often found “between the lines.”

Maureen Brady, a former school librarian and computer educator, has forty years of experience with family history research. She has traced her Scottish roots back to the end of the 17th century and beyond and has also pursued Chicago and the Midwest, the trans-Allegheny U.S., Quebecois, Irish, and Swedish research. Maureen has made numerous presentations to genealogical societies, libraries, conferences, and workshops throughout the U. S., as well as presenting for the Brigham Young University Library family history webinar series.

She is a member of the Genealogical Speakers Guild and a life member of the Aberdeen and Northeast Scotland Family History Society and the Ohio, Chicago, and McHenry County (Illinois) Genealogical Societies. Maureen is also active in the Kentucky, Middle Tennessee, and Lake County (Illinois) Genealogical Societies, the British Interest Group of Wisconsin & Illinois, and the Chicago Scots Scottish Genealogical Society.
