"Helping our members meet their genealogy goals"

CVGS General Meeting

"Was Your Ancsetor Truly Gone or Just Hidden Within the Records?"

Why haven't you found your ancestors in the records? Documents are often hidden from view, with information that is present but concealed, stored in a place or a manner that is unexpected, misspelled, indexed incorrectly, or separated from the other similar records. We'll explore strategies for tracking down these elusive ancestors so that we don't miss a single detail.

Pam Vestal

Pam Vestal is a professional genealogist and national speaker who turned her focus to her longtime love of genealogy after a 20-year writing career. Her articles have appeared in the National Genealogical Society Magazine and The Association of Professional Genealogists Quarterly, and her lectures take her from coast to coast.  Pam specializes in conducting genealogical research and then transforming that information into illustrated stories that even non-genealogists can enjoy.
