📝U.S. Great Lakes Region Accreditation: A Genealogical Treasure Trove
Come along on a journey through the Great Lakes region with Kaye Ford, Accredited Genealogist® Professional. She shares where to find genealogical treasure in records and repositories in the states of Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, and Wisconsin…even a bit of the Old Northwest Territory. Discover methodologies to help research in the Great Lakes region and take a peek at Ford’s Personal Reference Guide (PRG). If you have been considering accreditation in this region, Ford has a map to lead you to a treasure trove of genealogical riches!
Kay is ICAPGen’s third lecturer in a four-part ICAPGen series this year at Legacy Family Tree Webinars, following Torhild Shirley, AG® and Alice Childs, AG®. In the coming months, we’ll hear from Bonnie Wade Mucia, AG®, AGLTM.
This webinar is free to watch live and for one week afterward. After that viewing period ends, a Legacy Family Tree Webinars subscription is required to access the recording.
About the Webinar Series: The webinar series will focus on key aspects of accreditation—from exam preparation to regional methodologies. Whether you are just starting to explore accreditation or are deep into building your Four Generation Project, these sessions will provide practical, actionable guidance rooted in ICAPGen standards and requirements. Each episode is dedicated to helping researchers understand the accreditation process and build the regional expertise required to earn the Accredited Genealogist® credential.
