Coming MissionGenealogy Events with Bill Moore
I was thrilled to have Bill Moore of Family History with Bill Moore join me today. Until he mentioned it today, I’d not realized he’s only been on Substack for a few months and already he’s an active participant in both of my Substack publications, Projectkin Community Forum and Mission: Genealogy.
While Projectkin is all about inspiring you to Family History storytelling projects, Mission: Genealogy is our shared space to collaborate as family historians and genealogists and connect as peers. More about the publication here:
It happens that Mission: Genealogy events are bunched together during the first two weeks of the month. Here’s what’s coming this week. On Tuesday, May 6th, in the “Atlantic” time window, I’ll be hosting one of our Office Hours programs featuring an open-mic Q&A.
* These sessions are designed to help family historians and genealogists feel comfortable with the platform. Register here for Tuesday’s program. The program will be recorded with notes like these, plus resources and links. You’ll find the archives at MissionGenealogy.org/office-hours.
I wanted Bill Moore to join me today because he will join me as a guest co-host during the first of the two Mission: Genealogy Roundtables we have scheduled next week. Joining me as a guest co-host during the second Pacific version will be Diane the FH Bowerbird of Family History Bowerbird.
* Our Roundtable sessions give us all a moment to share what we’re up to and even ask for help. We try to keep the conversational groups small enough for meaningful conversations, using “rooms” if necessary. Unlike the Office Hours sessions, these programs will not be recorded. Please register Pacific and Atlantic-timed Roundtable sessions.
I generally host these Substack Live programs every Sunday in our local time in California. I’m going to skip our event next week, however. I don’t like to intrude on local holidays, especially as they land on weekends. I’m finding my way around holidays and always welcome your feedback. Feel free to drop me a note:
Join us at our next Substack Live: May 18/19
Looking at the calendar, next Sunday is Mother’s Day in North America, Australia, and New Zealand. Since mothers are at the heart of so much of what we do in Family History, I thought it prudent to skip the date. That means that our next Substack Live session will be Sunday, May 18/or Monday, May 19, on the far side of the date line.
I keep the schedules for all events at Projectkin.org/events.
Thank you again for following along on these live sessions and recordings. I think it’s another way for us to connect and get to know each other.
Special thanks to all of you sharing love LIVE during the program today. It’s hard to keep up and capture your names here, but let me offer a hat tip to each of you I caught in my screenshot… Nigel Bird, Thomas Potgieter, Linda Teather, Mishell Erickson, Lynda Heines; Thank you for your insights DearMYRTLE ,Dr. Mary M. Marshall, and Christopher Padgett… There were so many more of you I know I missed. Now perhaps you’ll have a chance to explore each other’s publications and get to know fellow travelers on this journey into genealogy. 🥰
Is Projectkin new to you? Take a moment to explore. We’d love to hear your insights about storytelling in family history.
