August 11 Meeting
Means, Motive and Opportunity: The Sad Saga of George Richards
by Jean Wilcox Hibben
This case study of a man whose choices served to confuse his descendants is reconstructed in this lecture. He was there, then gone, then back. See how a variety of records unlocked his real story. From England to the US, George's life was filled with conundrums and poor choices. See how to locate original records (not all online), separate fact from fiction, and assess evidence for accuracy.
Currently the president of the Corona Genealogical Society in California, Jean Wilcox Hibben has served on the board of the Genealogical Speakers Guild and the Association of Professional Genealogists; she was a Certified Genealogist for ten years and has worked as a professor in speech communication.
