Picture Problems

Presented by Allyson Maughan on 2 Feb 2023.
Pictures tell us so much about our ancestors. However, at times our pictures present difficulties when they have no information, conflicting information, or partial information. Come learn how to solve these issues.
Allyson is a research consultant, national speaker, and writer. She graduated from Idaho State University in history education. She completed ProGen 53 in 2022 and a Genealogy Research and Writing Certificate from Salt Lake Community College in 2019. Her current goal is completing ICAPGen Level 1. She was the co-president of the Salt Lake Valley Chapter of UGA in 2019-2020. She enjoys historical pictures and poetry writing and shares tips on familypicturesandpoetry.blogspot.com. If she is not researching, she is with her husband and three girls enjoying family time in Salt Lake City.
