Genealogist Tim Pinnick will discuss how to conduct newspaper research, and how to use two specific tools in doing so, The Ancestor Hunt and Chronicling America. The Ancestor Hunt is a guide to newspapers, featuring links, tips & tricks, how-to tutorials and more. Chronicling America is a tool that allows researchers to discover which newspapers exist in a certain geographic area, and then identify the repositories holding them.
