Hello David,
Thank you for a wonderful presentation — “Path to Glory: Start Researching Your WWI Ancestor Without Getting Lost.” I am glad we were your first presentation on this topic in the format used…..Everyone had the same reaction–“fabulous”, “one of the best presentations I’ve attended”, and many such comments such as these. Hands down, everyone thought it one of our better presentations, a few said it was the best, and most had someone they were going home to try what they learned. One of our members, Patrick L., shared his research finding with our members the next day. Patrick sent off for copies of his ancestors’ WWI records. He was very happy and shared his results with our members. When I asked if the pace of the presentation was too fast, all said it was just right. Congratulations on your new topic presentation!….Once again, thank you for a very informative presentation! It generated a lot of positive comments!

Dear Dave,
I can’t thank you enough for your help with my genealogy research. When I first contacted you, I was worried about finalizing my presentation at an upcoming family reunion. I had hit so many genealogical road blocks that my story was incomplete. But your guidance and amazing research techniques truly put my mind at ease!
You were able to uncover things I had been searching for (e.g., Alfred’s naturalization, proofs of military service, military unit history; Dolores’ date of death, etc.) that helped round out the entire story on my family.
I also appreciated your professionalism and organization. It was reassuring for me to know exactly which areas you would work on, and to get your updates on progress, as well as on dead ends.
As you well know, genealogy research can easily become a black hole of time! But your thorough reports and feedback helped me accomplish my goals and stay on budget.
Thanks to you, the presentation was a great success. I enjoyed working together on the search and hope we can work together again on the other side of my family’s history.
Best regards,
