Does your family have stories that have defied genealogical documentation?
Emily Garber will explain what steps should be taken to understand them
and determine the truth. Her presentation explores exhaustively
researching our stories and melding paper documentation with DNA evidence.
Emily Garber is an archaeologist. She has been researching her Jewish
ancestry since 2007 and holds a certificate from Boston University's
Genealogical Research program. Emily is a blogger, chair of the Phoenix
