The Genealogy Society of Vallejo-Benicia's Thursday October 3, 2024 meeting featured speaker is James M. Baker, PhD. His topic is "Finding the Hardest Ones, Part 2”

 

This is Part 2 of a two-part presentation. Part 1 was done last month.

 

Mr. Baker will use Case studies to show problem solving methods where key data are missing – without embarking on new research – by analyzing data such as naming patterns, birth/marriage witness data, inheritance data, sibling data, timelines, family migrations, and other data already in your database.

 

Part 1 was done at our September Meeting. A recording of that presentation will be available by request until our October meeting by sending an email to GSVBzoom@gmail.com .

 

Mr. Baker has been an active genealogist for over 15 years. He specializes in German, Midwest US, early American research, and DNA. He has written articles for the National Genealogical Society (NGS) Magazine, the NGS Quarterly, and Der Blumenbaum, the journal of the Sacramento German Genealogy Society. He has presented classes and webinars to many genealogy groups including National Genealogical Society, Southern California Jamboree, and Legacy Family Tree Webinars. Mr. Baker earned a PhD in sociology and social psychology from the University of Utah. He is retired from an aerospace and business management career.
