How We Work
Fees
I do not charge for my presentations. Rather, I always prefer a small token representative of your organization (e.g., a coffee mug, t-shirt, etc.). If you are determined to spend money, you can send a donation to the good folks who got me started in this adventure: the Sun City Shadow Hills Genealogy Club.
Copyright
None of my material is copyrighted. Rather, it is all available to share. I merely ask that you provide a small attribution for anything you choose to use.
Handouts
Every presentation has an associated handout which lists the sources for the research that will be referenced in the presentation. Select a presentation and then select the Handout for that session.
