About this event
Conducting Family Interviews One of the best sources of family history isn’t found in records or archives — it’s the stories and memories of our relatives. Conducting family interviews can uncover personal insights, traditions, and details that might not exist anywhere else. In this session, we’ll discuss how to plan and conduct effective family history interviews. Learn what questions to ask, how to encourage meaningful storytelling, and the best ways to record and preserve these valuable conversations for future generations. Whether you’re just starting your genealogy journey or looking to fill in missing pieces, this session will help you capture and preserve your family’s legacy. Just in time for the Holidays! The Friday after Thanksgiving is designated as a National Day of Listening. Take advantage of the time you spend with your family to gather stories!
