Research a Veteran: Military Research Part 1

Exploring the Basics of Military Research

Have you ever wondered what happened to family or friends during and after the war? Answers can be found. Led by genealogist and military researcher Jennifer Holik.

In this session you will learn:
Where to begin your research at home.
What questions to ask.
The first part of the research strategy to learn any veteran's story from any 20th century war and and military branch.
What records you need to establish the foundation and where to locate them.
How to create a timeline of service.
How to begin writing the story.
I use storytelling along with the records to help you understand the deeper impacts of service. You might want a tissue for the story at the end of this session.

Must attend both sessions (4/2 and 5/7).
