Widening Horizons – First Two Recordings Are Online

Posted 21 October 2020 by Tessa Keough

The wait is over – and thanks so much for your patience. The first two recordings in the Widening Horizons Webinar Series are now up available on the Seminar Events page. Just click on the links for these two lectures to view the recordings. In a few days, the recording of the third lecture presented last night will also be available in the same manner.

The first in the series Mortality and Morbidity: a study of National Registration death certificate for two families 1837 to 2009 with Elizabeth E. Green will be available to all through November 4, 2020 and then continue as a Guild member benefit (always available at the Seminars page). In this session Elizabeth mentioned two books and referenced two slides that many attendees asked about. They are shown here (with links to the PDFs) for your use.

                     

The second in the series One-Place Studies – thinking laterally: how a one-place study can support surname and population studies with Paul Carter and Pam Smith will remain available to all on an extended basis. We thank the Local Population Studies Society for their agreement to keep their presentations open to the genealogy and family history community. And if you would like to learn more about their Name & Place software, Paul and Pam answered several questions about its use with specialized studies.

On Wednesday, October 21st Dr. Andy Hinde of the University of Southampton presents Creating a publicly-available common format database of parish register data on baptism, marriages and burials. If you have registered, we look forward to seeing you on Wednesday. If you haven’t registered yet, please visit the Seminars page and register for this third of six weekly presentations in the Widening Horizons SemSub series.

Please join us for all six presentations (either live or via recording). Thanks to SemSub Committee and the Local Population Studies Society for this excellent online seminar!
