We will meet in a café overlooking Toulouse to explore your family history for two hours.

I will show you how to begin your genealogical research online using digitized archives. Together, we will look at the different kinds of information you can hope to find about your French ancestors (more than you might expect!), and the resources available to genealogists.

As we go along, you will fill out a family tree on an A3-sized sheet, which you can take home with you.

You can also come with a more specific topic (such as research on a particular ancestor), and I will try to address it using online archives. I will provide you with further research paths so that you can continue your research independently, whether online or in physical archive services.

After the session, I will email you the original documents found together.

We will meet in a café nestled on the top floor of a department store (the café is accessible by elevator). The background music is light enough to allow us to work properly.
