The Trifecta: The Secret Sauce of Researching the Formerly Enslaved

Presented by Nicka Smith

Genealogists and family historians alike have spent decades looking for a tried and true method for unearthing slaveholders of those enslaved prior to 1865. Learn how three crucial record sets (Civil War Pensions, the Freedmen’s Bureau, and Probates/Successions) can become just the wrecking ball needed to obliterate brick walls related to slavery.

Registration is required for this lecture via Zoom.
