Family History Connect | Finding an artist in your family tree

Our 'members-only' series, Family History Connect, features themed sessions focusing on particular areas of genealogical research.

Sessions are generally facilitated by one of the Society’s wonderful volunteers and will take place in-person at our Family History Research Centre & Library. These sessions are open to all current members of the Society. 

Earlier this year, Patrice gave a talk about the resources you can find to give you more information about musicians you might have come across in your family tree. Now Patrice is turning to where you might look for more if you find an artist in your ancestry.

The term "artist" covers so many fields of expertise: painting, sculpture, architecture, drawing, crafts of all types and more. She will take you to some databases which may prove useful, as well as many websites with more possibilities for research.

Patrice is a foremost a musician, but she has studied fine arts within her various careers. She will encourage you to use your imagination to leap from the resources she will show you towards finding your artist if such information can be found!

This is a members only event that will take place  via Zoom.

Bookings are essential for this session.
