Dr. Michael Lacopo

The Genealogical Society of Kendall County invites you to attend the Twelfth Annual Hill Country Family History Seminar, on Saturday, April 30, 2016, in Boerne, Texas.

About the Speaker

Dr. Michael Lacopo was born and raised in northern Indiana. He started doing genealogical research as a hobby in 1980 to verify family stories he had always heard. In 1991 Michael completed his doctorate in veterinary medicine. In 2013, he retired from his medical career to pursue genealogical research as a full-time profession. Michael has contributed to numerous periodicals and is a popular and respected speaker both nationally and internationally. His interests and strengths include Mennonite and European research. You can follow Michael’s research adventures at his blog at Roots4U.blogspot.com.

About the Program

His topics for the seminar will be:

  • She Came from Nowhere: A case study approach to a difficult genealogical problem (Virginia research, problem-solving, social history, female research, and family analysis)
  • Deconstructing Your Family Tree: Re-evaluating the “Evidence”. When information from researchers does not add up – what to do.
  • More than the Census – Our families did exist between those ten-year intervals.
  • Using DNA Testing to further your Family Tree: A one-hour primer
