Description

Family lore was passed down but not the family secret: Henry Bell, a Free Person of Color, had ties to a well-known Buckeye abolitionist.  In this case study, learn how a genealogical society’s brick wall challenge led to a major family history breakthrough.  Attendees will be given an overview of Tick Marks, Reverse Name Searches, Migration Patterns, Cluster Research, Newspapers, and Timelines.
