February 23, 2019 @2pm.  Michelle Goodrum will discuss "Cluster Research Using the FAN Principle - Friends, Associates and Neighbors."
Our ancestors did not exist in a vacuum.  They interacted with the people around them.  Often they migrated in groups or serially.  To tell the stories of our ancestors and solve challenging genealogical questions, we may need to investigate the lives of their friends, associates, and neighbors.  Michelle Goodrum's talk covers tools and strategies to widen your research in order to find your ancestors.
Michelle Roos Goodrum is a certificate holder and Teaching Assistant for Boston University's Genealogical Research Program and the Genealogy Principles course.  She also regularly attends genealogy institutes and conferences.  She became involved in genealogy in 1994 when she discovered her family's stash of old documents and photos.  She is now the caretaker of 140 years of her family's history.
