Piecing Together the Past: Tools and Techniques for African American Genealogy

This class offers a practical guide for exploring African American family history focusing on resources and methods to overcome obstacles in research. Participants will learn to use federal and state records, including censuses, oral histories, Freedmen's Bureau records, slave schedules, and church records, as well as lesser-known resources like Freedman’s Bank records, military pensions, and local community archives. We’ll discuss tips for DNA analysis to connect with lost branches, and ways to build a family tree despite record gaps. Illustrated through compelling case studies drawn from real research experiences, this session will provide you with the tools to build and preserve a family history across generations.
