Join Katherine Schober of Germanology Unlocked to learn about using vital records in your genealogy research.
Join Katherine Schober of Germanology Unlocked to learn about using vital records in your genealogy research.
Birth, marriage, and death records are goldmines of information for German genealogists. Learn how to extract the information you need from these clue-filled documents – it’s a lot easier than you think!
Katherine Schober will take you through how to research effectively in your genealogy search. Born in St. Louis, she earned her Master’s degree in the German language through Bowling Green State University/University of Salzburg. She then spent three additional years in Austria, teaching English and translating German (with a focus on history). In 2014, she moved back to the States with her Austrian husband, and, although they are now in America, German is still the main language spoken in their home.
This webinar will be recorded and available to view for 30 days after the program.
$20 for GAHC&M Members
$25 for non-Members

How we install our Advent Calendar windows! Step 1 We cut the vinyl so they fit the shape of the windows. Since it is an old building not all of the windows are the same size. Step 2 Climb onto your desk in order to reach the top of the window. 🤪 Step 3 Peel back the plastic film to reveal the clingy vinyl. Step 4 Use a plastic card or scraper to adhere the design to the window, getting as many bubbles out as you can. Step 5 Admire the new design and countdown the days until Christmas!#advent #christmas #windows #vinyl #davenport #german #museum #froheweinachten
