Upcoming Virtual Genealogy Programs
June – July 2026
 
Good Morning:  We are pleased to announce our upcoming schedule of genealogy programs for June and July 2026.  Both programs will be virtual via Go To Webinar.  I’ve included the registration links for both programs under the respective topics.
 
Topic: Overcoming Brickwalls, Research Challenges, and Dead Ends.  
Registration: https://leelibrary.librarymarket.com/event/online-overcoming-brickwalls-research-challenges-and-dead-ends-130415
Date: Thursday, June 4, 2026
Location:  Virtual – Go To Webinar
Time: 10-11:30am
Speaker: Bryan L. Mulcahy – Reference-Genealogy Librarian – Fort Myers Regional Library
 
Program Description:  Dead-ends, also known as brick walls, are occupational hazards for genealogists.  These challenges are an inevitable part of the genealogical research process.  The good news is that many dead-ends can be overcome with patience and good detective work.  Most genealogists usually find methods or strategies to overcome these roadblocks.  Our seminar will discuss the most successful techniques to overcome these challenges. 
 
Topic:  Jumping the Pond: Tracing Immigrant Origins.
Registration: https://leelibrary.librarymarket.com/event/online-jumping-pond-finding-origins-your-ancestor-130416

Date: Thursday, July 9, 2026
Location:  Virtual – Go To Webinar
Time: 10-11:30am
Speaker: Donna Moughty -  Irish Family Roots - www.moughty.com

Program Description:  Before you flyaway to your ancestor’s county of origin, you will need to do your homework. Whatever the nationality of your immigrant ancestor, to effectively search you must begin at home. The most important piece of information is the town or parish where your ancestor was born. If you don’t know that information you must dig through records at home to harvest as much information as possible. This lecture will look at the types of records available in the United States that might help you identify a town of origin in the native country.
 
 
If you encounter any problems registering for either program feel free to email me at bmulcahy@leegov.com.  I’ll be happy to register you and send the confirmation.  Feel free to contact me with any questions.  I sincerely thank you for your continued support.
