Most experienced genealogists know of the New England Historic Genealogical Society, located in Boston. The Society is well known for tracing New England ancestors. After all, the words "New England" are in the society's name. What many people do not realize is that the society is also a great resource for tracing United Kingdom, Canadian, European, Hispanic, and other ethnic groups' ancestry. The Society has even had recent success with Oriental and Pakistani ancestry.
A new video on Roots Television features Lauren Garber showing the success that Pat Gowdy and others have had in researching their ancestry, using the resources of the New England Historic Genealogical Society. Pat Gowdy researched Italian ancestry but the video describes the successes some others have had researching other ethnic groups.
