Cranberry Genealogy Club: Misbegotten Children

Misbegotten Children: Tracing the Family Lines of the Illegitimate

Nearly all families have children with seemingly missing fathers. Yet, there may be clues and resources to help us determine their ancestry. Illegitimacy can be both a surprise and an embarrassment as we discover more and more about our family’s history. Treated with care and sensitivity, we can use many available resources to help us in our research.

Our presenter: Peggy Clemens Lauritzen, AG, FOGS, is a frequent lecturer at Family History seminars. She has presented at Brigham Young University and ICAPGen, and taught continuing education classes at community colleges and The Ohio State University. She was tested through ICAPGen to become an Accredited Genealogist, a credential she has maintained for twenty-five years, working hard to polish her research skills. She is a featured columnist in Reminisce magazine, has written several Legacy QuickGuides, and has filmed as an instructor for Ancestry Academy. Peggy and her husband Kerry serve as Family History Center Directors in north central Ohio.
