The Georgia Genealogical Society is pleased to sponsor the
presentation "Harnessing the Power of Indirect Evidence" with Susan Sloan on
May 20th, 2013.
Summary: What do
genealogists do when there is no direct evidence to confirm relationships on
their family tree? The genealogical proof standard is a process that includes
gathering, evaluating and sorting evidence, then summarizing it to come to a
logical conclusion. This presentation uses two case studies to illustrate the
use of several kinds of indirect evidence in proving relationships.
