About this Event
Researchers charting personal relationships in their family trees often overlook opportunities to trace recurring family medical conditions and predispositions to diseases. Learn how to find clues in a variety of genealogical resources including death and burial records, newspaper articles and obituaries, and letters or diaries. Whether you plan to create a medical genogram or just an informal list to share with relatives, this workshop will encourage you to take a new look at the family information you collect.
