Webinar Description: Military repatriation research requires particular credentials and some less common genealogical skills: finding living relatives of people who died decades ago, understanding military next-of-kin rules, tracing very specific lines for mitochondrial and Y-DNA testing, and engaging in delicate discussions with people who often were either very close to the soldier or who have no idea who he was. No two cases are the same, and the approach when the soldier was an only child can be very different from when he had eight siblings. Creative use of small details in records is often essential, and family members can be critical for locating someone otherwise impossible to find. Come learn about one researcher's approach to these cases, the unexpected obstacles which sometimes arise, and the satisfaction of finding those all-important relatives and bringing cases to a successful conclusion.
