Meet the Speakers
Introducing our spectacular speaker line-up for THE Genealogy Show: Winter Event! Take a look at our speaker schedule below, where you’ll see we have 48 talks on some top genealogy and family history subjects. That means you’ll be able to watch a NEW talk every hour, on the hour, for 48 hrs.
Worried you might miss a talk going live? We’ve got you covered! Once a video has gone live on the Main Stage, it will also be deposited into the On-Demand section where you can watch the talk at a time that best suits you. All content at THE Genealogy Show: Winter Event will even be open for you to access for a whole 30 DAYS (until January 4th 2023) after the live portion of the event has ended.
