Whether scoundrel, inmate, or simply living beyond the family norm, the silence surrounding the "black sheep" in our families can speak volumes about both our families and the times in which they lived. Join us in an overview of research practices and Midwest Genealogy Center resources which can be used to remove the "wool" from our eyes, revealing the true stories of these seldom-mentioned family members. This program will be held in person.
