In this week’s lineup, Og is excited to share a new series of Irish videos he recently found online! The videos are provided by Mike O'Laughlin and the Irish Genealogical Foundation. They have published the largest collection of Irish Family History books in the world since 1978, and more recently three Irish podcast series, including one on Irish genealogy. This is the first video of a 14-part series on their Irish Roots Café, which focuses on Irish family heritage. To access their podcasts, blog and Irish books, visit them at: www.irishroots.com.
The next set of videos are from Og’s friend, Eric Basir of Photo Grafix. In this workshop, he talks about photo preservation, digital restoration and photo identification, and provides some extremely helpful tips and advice. Watch the first four parts of Eric’s 16-part workshop, and tune in next week for the next four videos!
Og is rounding out this week with a montage of media coverage from the New England Historic Genealogical Society's discoveries of a Helen Keller photograph and the relationships between Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and John McCain.
Oh and in case you missed them when they debuted last week, be sure to check out the Annie Moore ceremonies in New York and Cork, Ireland!
Until next week, good luck with all of your genealogical endeavors!
