Webinar—Visualizing Information for Genealogists

You have slaved over your client report. You have delved into the data, mined it for every iota of information, you have examined and evaluated your sources, analyzed and correlated your evidence, resolved any conflicts, and carefully crafted a narrative. Your report is accurate, but does your presentation compellingly tell the story? Does your work convincingly summarize the depth and breadth of your analysis? Are you using all the tools available to you to effectively communicate with your clients and engagingly present the story of their ancestors? This presentation will show how to use text and images effectively in client research and why it matters. Several examples will illustrate how to go from raw data to a polished, professional display of information.

Presenter: Named for her grandmothers and inspired by her mother’s phenomenal memory, Margaret R. Fortier, CG, is a Boston-based genealogical researcher, lecturer, and writer.
