BCG OFFERS FREE WEBINAR Tuesday, June
16
“Truth or Fiction? Unraveling a
Family Yarn”
George Teeling came from Ireland to Chicago in the
1800s. Like many ancestors, he left a story that made his descendants wonder. How
much of it was true?
The Board for Certification of Genealogists will
present a webinar on this subject free to the public at 8:00 PM EDT 16 June
2015. Teresa Steinkamp
McMillin, CG, will outline how research in a wide variety of sources revealed the
even more fascinating truth about George – and how it can provide ideas for how
to deal with our own tale-bearing research subjects.
Seating
is limited for this webinar. Please register early and sign in early to avoid disappointment.
The board is an independent certifying body and
author of the updated 2014 Genealogy Standards.
Teresa Steinkamp McMillin,
CG, specializes
in German-American and Midwest research, as well as reading German script. She
has been interested in genealogy since she was a child and is a multi-year
attendee of the Institute of Genealogy and Historical Research and the Salt
Lake Institute of Genealogy. A member of the Association of Professional
Genealogists, the National Genealogical Society, and many local genealogical
societies, she also serves as webmaster for the Northwest Suburban Genealogy
Society in Arlington Heights, Illinois. Recently, Teresa published Guide to

said BCG president Jeanne Larzalere Bloom, CG. “The Board for Certification of
