Join us for a FREE virtual program on October 16 at 6:30 p.m. ET!

Does the thought of documenting your sources seem daunting and tedious? Have you reviewed your own work, or someone else’s, and not been able to determine the origin of the information? Learn why documentation is necessary for all genealogists, and strategies and tools to simplify source citations that meet current genealogy standards.

Megan Ann Clark Young (MACY) has spent the last 25 years researching her Scots-Irish, Swedish and German lines. She knocked down brick walls, digitized and shared boxes of family records, and learned a lot along the way.

She is employed full-time as a forensic genealogist and is currently “on the clock,” working on her BCG portfolio.

Megan also spent more time than she cares to admit undoing mistakes she made early on. She hopes to help others avoid similar mistakes and has presented on various genealogy topics at the local, state, and national levels.
