Raising the Dead: Why Cemeteries Should Be Part of the Foundation of Genealogical Research

  • Gulf Gate Public Library 7112 Curtiss Ave., Sarasota 34231

Join me, Dara Tolbert Brooks as we investigate a subject in research everyone will have to explore ... Cemeteries!

Cemeteries are more than just a resting place for the dead. They are rich repositories of families with stories waiting to be uncovered. In this session, we’ll delve into the invaluable role cemetery research plays in piecing together family connections and filling in the gaps in our genealogical journey. We will explore the unique insights that gravestones, burial records, cemetery landscapes and burial traditions can offer to enrich our research.

This will be In PERSON ONLY.
