Melissa Johnson, Using Vital Records

Melissa Johnson, CG, returns to the Forum with a lecture about how to use birth, marriage, death, and divorce records to build your family tree. Discover records that can substitute for vital records that are unavailable, as well as records that can be located based on information found in vital records. While geared toward beginners, this talk will also appeal to more experienced researchers.

     Johnson specializes in researching families from New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and the British Isles, as well as in DNA testing for adoptees and unknown parentage, dual citizenship, and lineage society research.
