Would you binge watch genealogy?

Quelle idée! Innovation genealogy leader MyHeritage is holding a FREE 24-Hour Genealogy Webinar Marathon.

You'll need time to rest up so this is advance notice.

The marathon will begin on Thursday, 12 March at 5 P.M. ET through to Friday, 13 March, at 5 P.M.

Each lecture will be 45 minutes long, including 10 minutes for questions at the end.  Here's the schedule with my top three picks highlighted:

  2. I'd love to attend this Webinar Marathon, unfortunately it is not free. As a senior with limited money to spare on genealogy, I can't fit it into my budget.

  4. About two episodes of anything is all I can watch at one time.

  5. Registered - I'll watch some now, some later, and there are several which are irrelevant to my research, so I may give them a pass. I suspect the group will be held on Legacy Webinars website as are other MyHeritage webinars - giving us time to plan to watch a second or third time on the ones we loved or got confused on!! :)
