Brotherhood Meeting & Speaker Sunday, January 10th 10:15 AM
Speaker; Linda Carlson Have you always wanted to start working on your genealogy but didn’t know how to get started? Have you always believed that there are no records on your family? Do you wonder where your family came from? Was your family name changed “at Ellis Island” and no one knows the original name? Come listen to Linda Carlson and learn how to find the answers to your questions.
Linda Carlson was born and raised in New York City until age five, when she moved to Long Island. She moved to Connecticut in the 1970s to attend the University of Hartford and never left. As a descendant of Jewish immigrant grandparents, Linda began her genealogical research at age 15 for a school project.
After beginning her career as a Special Education teacher, Linda is now the Educational Director at a private high school. She has earned a master’s degree in Educational Technology from the University of Connecticut and a Certificate of Advanced Graduate Studies in School Administration from American International College.
Linda's presentation will cover some of the common methods of doing genealogy from a Jewish perspective. She will provide information about ship records, naturalization, reading gravestones, finding towns in Europe, Holocaust records, Jewish DNA and more.
She is a member of the Connecticut Professional Genealogists Council and is on the Boards of both of the Jewish Genealogical Society of Connecticut and the Connecticut Society of Genealogists.
Linda will speak after the monthly Brotherhood meeting. All are welcome to join for the speaker at approximately 10:15 am. Brotherhood greatly appreciates your patience in the virtual waiting room as they finish their meeting and prepare for the speaker.
