Public Notices/Announcements - Brockville/Prescott - A Free Family History Presentation May 1 on Zoom

Join us on Monday, May 1st on Zoom as we host a presentation called Finding Them on the Ground

Records such as censuses and maps can often give us the lot, concession, and township information for where our rural Ontario kin resided. However, finding those details can sometimes be a challenge. In this presentation, genealogist Ken McKinlay will be diving into those various online resources and showing us how to find those nuggets with the records. With that information we have a much better chance of finding the various Ontario land records related to their property.

Ken McKinlay is a genealogy researcher with over 20 years of trial and error experience in researching his own family’s history in Canada, United States, England, Scotland and Ireland. Ken has a genealogy related blog at Family Tree Knots (https://familytreeknots.blogspot.com/) where he shares the methodologies that he uses in his own research.
