Here's the sessions I attended today, all were excellent!
Elizabeth Shown Mills:
Elusive Ancestors? No, They're Never "Too Poor to Trace"!
FamilySearch Luncheon:
FamilySearch: Past, Present and Future
Mary M. Tedesco:
Italian Genealogy Research in Italy and from Home
Michael D.Lacopo:
The German Immigrant Experience in the 18th Century
After lunch I decided to explore the Exhibit hall, so glad I did. I was able to go around to multiple vendors and get my Exhibit Hall Passport stamped. I'll need to get both sides of the passport filled with stamps to be eligible for the FGS Grand Prize Package of a 2017 FGS Conference Package. That is a grand prize worth working I wouldn't mind having. It was nice to have an almost empty hall. No crowds or lines to maneuver, perfect!
After the last session I went to the President Abraham Lincoln Hotel ballroom dinner at the "Meet & Greet" sponsored by Ancestry.
Tomorrow will be more great choices that I can't wait to explore.
