Join author Andre Kearns for a Culture Conversation inspired by his book Finding Cornerstone Stories: Uncovering Inspiration in Your Family’s History. This engaging discussion invites us to look beyond names, dates, and documents to discover the meaningful stories that give family history its heart.
Kearns explores how seemingly ordinary moments, choices, challenges, and accomplishments in our ancestors’ lives can become “cornerstone stories”—stories that reveal resilience, values, courage, creativity, and the experiences that shaped our families. Together, we’ll consider how genealogists and family historians can recognize these stories, uncover them through research, and share them in ways that resonate with family members today.
Whether you are just beginning your family history journey or have years of research behind you, this conversation will offer fresh inspiration for turning your discoveries into stories worth remembering—and passing on.
Join us on Zoom on Wednesday, 28 October at 8pm Eastern for this Culture Conversation webinar. Register at https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/f6UDpAq_TPKtiXqi953dXA today!
