SUMMARY:Tips & Tricks for Lesser-Used Record Types
DESCRIPTION:Free for members\, $5 for non-members\nLocation:       Online\nFacebook:     @stcloudareagenealogists \nTo register\, please email scag@stcloudareagen.org one week prior to the event for payment and login details. \nDeanna Korte will present the webinar “Tips & Tricks for Lesser-Used Record Types” for the St. Cloud Area Genealogists.

She holds a certificate from the Boston University Genealogical Research Program and is currently pursuing the Certified Genealogist credential. Her specializations in the United States include New York state\, New York City and Midwestern research.
