Presenter: Barbara Phillips
This class is Part III of the presentation covering key points and often overlooked data in the census records. In this first part, we reviewed background information on census records from 1790-1850. Part II was an in-depth look at why the census was required, the importance of the actual “Census day,” and how some small pieces of data can lead us to find information in other documents, it covered the period of 1860-1920. Part III wraps up the topic and covers records from 1930 to 1950.
 
Barbara is an expert on this topic! Come and get the answers to your census related questions.

Cluster Analysis
Wednesday, June 25
Cluster Analysis  (DNA SIG)
7:00 pm to 8:00 pm

Cluster analysis groups your DNA matches by ancestor.  The Leeds Analysis discussed in February only grouped 2nd cousins by grandparent and was a manual process.  Cluster analysis is automated and groups various cousins into ancestral groups, not just by grandparent.  Come and get a perspective on what your many cousins are telling you about your ancestors.
