Virtual NERGC 2021 kicks off  this Thursday, April 1 with Gathering Day 1, a full day of scheduled presentations and live chat.  Be sure to join us for:

 10:00 – 1030 Opening Session

Join us for welcoming remarks by NERGC’S President and Conference Chairs and the presentation of the Donna Holt Siemiatkoski Volunteer Award

 11:00-12:00 Pat Richley-Erickson “7 Habits of Highly Effective Genealogists”

 12:00 – 1:30  Virtual Exhibit Hall.  Be sure to visit the Virtual Exhibit Hall during this unopposed time.  Many of the exhibitors will be hosting live video chats--a Zoom meeting that mimics the experience of approaching a booth in an in-person exhibit hall.  Although other attendees may be asking a question, you can do the same when there is a break in the conversation. 

 1:30-2:30 Alice Ferretti  “Thinking Outside the (Search) Box: Ancestry Search Strategies”

 3:00-4:00 Jill Morelli “FamilySearch: Don't Miss the Unindexed 70%”

 4:30-5:30 Live chat with Pat Richley-Ericson

 6:00-7:00 p.m. a Virtual Banquet presentation by English Author Nathan Dylan Goodwin

Nathan’s topic is “Using Fact in Fiction”.  It will be added to the other available pre-recorded sessions after April 1.
