Program Description

Event Details

The task of searching for one’s biological family as an adoptee can be very complicated and stressful. 

Join genealogist Eric Midgal as he shares tools and techniques he learned during his own search for his biological family and shows you the best ways to accomplish your search.

He will uncover resources that can be used including adoption agencies, applying for information, DNA testing and research using genealogy databases like Ancestry and HeritageQuest available through your library.

Eric Midgal has been doing family history research for 30 years and assists clients with family tree building, DNA test analysis, and safely and effectively contacting unknown family members.

This program is made possible with the support of The Friends of the Livingston Public Library.
