Presenter: David Fryxell, Family Tree Magazine founder and contributing editor Duration: 60 minutes About the Webinar:
Thanks to recent Internet advances, military records that once required writing away to archives and waiting weeks are now only a few clicks away — as are records that were formerly inaccessible. In this Webinar, you'll learn how to tap a variety of free and subscription Websites to find service records, pension records and more. Even if your ancestor never served in the military, draft registrations can help fill in the blanks in your family tree! Topics will include: • Revolutionary War service records, land bounties and DAR records
• Finding Civil War ancestors' units and downloading service records
• Civil War and other pension records
• Unlocking the secrets in World War I draft registrations
• Identifying veterans' burial sites
• ... and even more! Who should purchase this webinar: • Genealogists looking to break down "brick walls" in their research
• Family historians hoping to prove military service in their ancestry
• Genealogists with 18th and 19th century roots in America
• Researchers who've hit roadblocks in the late 19th and early 20th century
