Getting the most from Deceased Online.
Discover how to search burial and cremation records, locate graves, view original register pages, and, perhaps most importantly, find out who else was buried in the same grave.
Using practical examples and a live demonstration, this session will show how Deceased Online can uncover unexpected family connections and provide clues that may not appear in traditional genealogy records.
The talk will also cover checking geographical coverage, dealing with spelling variations and aliases, understanding the limitations of online records, and using information found on the site alongside other family history sources.
Whether you’re new to genealogy or an experienced researcher, this talk will provide useful tips and ideas to help you make the most of this fascinating resource.
