The local church was a central part of our ancestors' lives. This session will explore how to use Roman Catholic Church records to find out more about the story of your ancestor, including baptism records, marriage registers, death registers, and confirmation records. The Historic Catholic Records Online Project at NEHGS will be highlighted in detail.
