7:00 - 8:30 PM EST
Join us as Pennsylvania genealogist and Quaker records expert Kay
Haviland Freilich and Ann Wetherill Upton, Librarian of Quaker Special
Collections at Haverford College present a webinar designed to help you
discover your Quaker ancestors.
Vital events. Wedding guests. Migrations. Lifestyles. Family groups.
Patriotism. Quaker records offer researchers a treasure trove of
information about ancestors. Knowledge of the record-keeping practices
of the Society of Friends, what they recorded, and why, will help
today’s researchers unlock all these facts and many more.
Finding Pennsylvania Quaker records seems to be as challenging as
finding Quaker ancestors; however, this presentation will show how the
search can be straightforward and much easier. Participants will learn
the tools and strategies for identifying which records will give them
the information they need. Finding the location of those records and how
to gain access to them, remotely and in person, will also be clearly
explained. The exciting future of research in Quaker records will also
be discussed as easy and reliable retrieval is in sight.
