Class Description: Join us on an exciting investigation into your family’s past! You may find intriguing clues to why you are who you are. Everyone has family stories and legends, but are they true? Are you really descended from royalty? Was great-grandpa really a bank robber? This course
will show you how to explore the possibilities and unearth the past. Methods and resources for tracing your ancestry in the U.S. and in the “old country” will be covered in class and reinforced through practice exercises. The study of genealogy and family history is exciting and can be surprising. Students are encouraged to apply course information to locate and expand their own family history and genealogical tree.
