Leaving a Legacy: Who’s Writing Your Story? (webinar)

About this event


Join the Georgia Genealogical Society for a profound exploration into the art of personal storytelling with our esteemed special guest speaker, genealogist Dr. Deborah A. Abbott, PhD. In her compelling presentation, "Leaving a Legacy: Who’s Writing Your Story?"  Dr. Abbott leads you on a journey to seize the narrative, and pen the story of your own life.  

Join the webinar on Thursday, April 10th via zoom at 8pm Eastern. Space is limited, so register here!

As family historians, we diligently trace the paths of our ancestors to safeguard their legacies for future generations. Yet, often, we neglect to document the rich tapestry of our own lives. Dr. Abbott challenges you to begin now; —nobody knows the fullness of your life's joy, pain, and laughter better than you. From personal anecdotes that won't appear in census records to heartfelt lessons learned, this session is your chance to ensure your own story is told, —and remembered.

Dr. Deborah A. Abbott, PhD, is a distinguished figure in the field of genealogy, known for her deep expertise in genealogical methodology, African American family research, and the utilization of manuscript collections. With a rich background in academia and community service, she brings a unique and invaluable perspective to the genealogical community.
