Larry W. Cates of the HRC shares his journey to discovering the Virginian and British origins of his Lightfoot family. Along the way, participants will learn about the challenges of migration, female ancestry, primogeniture, early death and frequent remarriage, record loss, centralized recordkeeping, the importance of social class, headrights, and trans-Atlantic research. Colonial genealogy is difficult but rewarding.
