I noticed several people taking Social Media courses. I found a good book by Debbie Kent, 2011: "DNA and Social Networking".

Hello All,  I am just checking out the various groups because of an assignment in the Social Media class encouraged it.  

I am curious if anyone knows if Canada has any records on shipwrecks that occurred around Newfoundland/Labrador area around 1795-1805?

Thanks :-)

My name is Sandra Blanchette. I am currently completing 3 certificates with NIGS: Canadian Records, American Records and Professional Development. I began in 2015 and only have 2 consultations in August left to do before having completed. I worked full time and over time since May 2016 (no cloning machine, although it would be very handy to have!). My experience has been quite amazing. The certificates with the NIGS not only provides knowledge, but also allows you to assess your own personal level of expertise and experience.
I specialize in the Gaspe Peninsula region (East Coast of Quebec) and have been intensely researching since 2010. From researching my family, I am now currently doing a One-Place Study for the Gaspe Basin and its surroundings.
Looking forward to making contact with other fellow researchers.

I am on my 4th Intermediate course and still loving every minute of it!  Finding it a little frustrating that my output has slowed with the harder courses, but I know that when I retire from my job (hopefully in a year or two) I will be able to fly through the program.

Hello! I'm taking a dual certificate in Canadian Records and Librarianship. I'm working in a library and have become hooked on genealogy! Particularly interested in my Crawford relatives from Ontario and the Warren branch from New Brunswick. I hope to be able to connect with people who might know about these ancestors. Sorry for the flower pic, but I didn't have any up-to-date pics...always behind the camera!

Hi! I'm Lori Lyn, a new member of this group. I am taking the course on Social Media and one of the assignments was to join an NIGS group and introduce myself. This one interested me because I am interested in my many time great grandfather Thomas Sumner who was a Loyalist. I also have some other family members from different lines who stayed briefly in Canada, but alas, all my direct lines were only in Canada for a generation or two before coming to the US. I have been doing genealogy for many years and have a blog at bridgingthepast.com/blog. I love learning about the historical and social context in which my ancestors lived.

I'm searching for relatives that moved from Saskatchewan to the Trail/Merritt/Vernon B.C. area in the 1930s.  I know her married name was Chambers and her maiden name was Rundvall.  I also know that the Chambers were living in Merritt sometime in the 1950s, but can't find anything anywhere.  Suggestions?

Ancestry.ca

I found Jane Eliza Carew 1781–1882, BIRTH 1781 • Ireland, DEATH 08 MAR 1882 • Bury, Quebec, Canada in tree posted by alan_lundstedt, USA. Spouse shown as James Hanright.

There is also info posted in tree by steve hanright.

I think if you drill down into these records and trees you can find out more. Some record from Drouin Collection are in French and my French is very bad.
