Every year, the Archives of Michigan and the Michigan Genealogical Council host a seminar to promote family history awareness and teach genealogy research skills.
They will be hosting keynote speaker Kelvin L. Meyers, who will join onsite in Lansing and via Zoom. Kelvin lives in Dallas, Texas and has been a professional forensic genealogist since 1996.
This course will give the participant an overview of forensic genealogy and the role of the genealogist in these types of cases. We will discuss some of the major types of cases in which a forensic genealogist may be involved, such as guardianship, oil and gas, unidentified and unclaimed persons, and probate. The role of the forensic genealogist as an expert witness will also be discussed.
