Please DO NOT buy into the hype that our ancestors were not documented at all before 1870, that we had no surnames before the 13th Amendment, and that we only have DNA to help us trace beyond that time period. #genealogy #familyhistory

You CAN find your ancestors. Tracing enslaved ancestors can be challenging but it is BEYOND possible.

People have been tracing their enslaved, and free, ancestors for more than 50 yrs, before TV shows, DNA testing, & before mainstay institutions even recognized…

that there is a specific methodology needed to research our families.

A whole FIVE YEARS happened before the 1870 Census. Have you done everything you can to trace your ancestors during the Emergence Era? It may be the reason why you can’t find them.

We would not be able to have more than 24 hrs worth of content to help you if it was impossible. It’s free & curated by a team of researchers with more than 100 yrs of collective research experience in genealogy & family history. #BlackProGen https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXTLb9wPqZyy1hIhEGiclnhe9dnlk3_Vh
