Feb. 11, 2025 — Christopher Bryant (C.D. Bryant Genealogy) — African-American Research 
 
Mar. 11, 2025 — Mark Dellenbaugh (Arlington Public Library) — What about the Women? Overcoming Challenges in Finding Female Ancestors (Women’s History Month)

Male ancestors typically kept their birth names their whole lives, could buy and sell property and enter into contracts, serve in the military, earn degrees, and were even listed as heads of households in census records. Female ancestors? Well, not so much! This talk, in the spirit of Women's History Month, will focus on techniques to help you find the women in your family history despite those obstacles.
