Legacy Webinars, 2017 Webinar Subscriber Summer Spectacular!

(Say that three times fast!)

I am a BIG fan of Legacy Webinars, for many reasons. First, they offer fantastic, high-quality, genealogical education, for a super low price! Second, I think they are very fair to their speakers and writers. As a past speaker and author of several Quick Guides, I feel very well taken care of. So, I’m happy to support something that supports me both in terms of education and as an educator.

Third… this is education you can get at home, wearing those bunny slippers (or in my case, sweatpants), at 3am when the repositories are closed! Or when sitting by your pool drinking adult beverages. However you like to do it! (I don’t judge.)

Below is the information from the news release. Please note that all of the links are to my affiliate account, another way that the folks at Legacy help support their supporters!


It’s our way of saying thank you to our webinar subscribers and inviting everyone else to preview these excellent classes!
