Hiding in Plain Sight
Sometimes the breakthrough is hiding in plain sight, in a record or place already searched once before. Join us as Maria Silva Rivera shares how she found a fifth great-grandmother, along with several other unexpected discoveries, by looking again at sources in an unexpected place.
Maria Silva Rivera is a fellow genealogist and member of our PRGG community.
