About the Event

Learn how to research your immigrant ancestors with the help of the Wisconsin Historical Society (WHS). WHS has one of the top five genealogical collections in the country with materials from across the United States and Canada, including newspapers, family history books, indexes, court records, and more. Discover how you can use these collections and our genealogy services to build your family tree. Whether you plan to visit us in person or online, get details on how WHS can help you find your roots!

Rebecca Hopman (she/her) is the Genealogy Services Librarian at the Wisconsin Historical Society Library. She gives presentations on the basics of genealogy research, conducting oral histories, and an introduction to the genealogy collections at the WHS Library and Archives. Rebecca is based at the Society's headquarters in Madison.
