Next year is the 10th anniversary of RootsTech. It has changed quite a bit since its beginnings and is now the largest genealogy conference in the world (as far as I know). And I will be there, because I had a presentation accepted!
I will be talking about how useful it is to learn something about the languages your ancestors spoke, as doing so increases the chances you will be able to find them in records and have better results from your research. It's a brand-new talk, and RootsTech will be the first time I present it.
And if you are planning to go to RootsTech, you can register now! Registration opened on Wednesday, and almost a thousand people signed up within the first few hours. I don't think it can run out of spots, but better safe than sorry, right? You can click on the registration link on the RootsTech home page or go straight here. The super special early-bird discount pricing is good through October 11, so do it soon if you want to save some money.
And I hope to see you next year in Salt Lake City!
Genealogy is like a jigsaw puzzle, but you don't have the box top, so you don't know what the picture is supposed to look like. As you start putting the puzzle together, you realize some pieces are missing, and eventually you figure out that some of the pieces you started with don't actually belong to this puzzle. I'll help you discover the right pieces for your puzzle and assemble them into a picture of your family.
