Anyway, I attended the Genealogical Research Institute of Pittsburgh (GRIP) for the entire week (virtually) and my brain is swimming in ideas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I felt like I needed to beef up my skills around this subject, so I took Judy Russell\u2019s course <em>Women and Children First!<\/em> As with all of Judy\u2019s courses, I was not disappointed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>There were a few goals that I had in mind that I was hoping this course would give me some ideas to work through:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Better understand the laws and situations around women and naturalization in the early 1900s.<\/li><li>Get familiar with women and children in the workplace (I have many immigrant women who were working upon arrival and even after marriage).<\/li><li>Learn more about how a child could come to be bound out, apprenticed, and even adopted in the late 1800s.<\/li><li>Learn about poor relief as it related to women and children in general.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The lectures related to these topics were wonderful and insightful, and that\u2019s why my brain is swimming in ideas!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Judy\u2019s lecture on women and children in the criminal justice system was fascinating. And I really enjoyed Blaine Bettinger\u2019s lecture on DNA. I didn\u2019t learn anything new, but it did inspire me to test my mtDNA \u201cfor the future,\u201d which is now on my to-do list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, this was a wonderful course and I recommend it to anyone who wants to strengthen their skills in researching the women in children in their tree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A special thanks to the other instructors in the course: Blaine Bettinger, Catherine Desmarais, Michael Ramage, Marian Smith, and Ari Wilkins. And of course, a big shout out to the GRIP team (Deb Deal, Elissa Scalise Powell, and Cyndi Ingle) for all their hard work behind the scene to make this a great experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>P.S. GRIP has announced their plans for 2023. The June sessions will be held virtually, while the July sessions will be held in person (with any luck).
