 women didn't leave much of a paper trail\, but they still had remarkable 
 stories to tell.  Although it may appear that they haven't left any 
 documents behind\, deeper research into underutilized records will often 
 lead to a better understanding of the women in our family trees.  In this 
 talk\, we'll explore a variety of records\, and also look at local 
 history\, the law\, politics\, and the cataclysmic events that confronted 
 them to help us bring their hidden stories to light.\n\n\n\nPam Vestal is a 
 professional genealogist in Portland\, Oregon\, offering her services 
 through Generations Genealogy\, Specializing in Family History Research and 
 Biography. She has published articles in the National Genealogical Society 
 Magazine\, The Association of Professional Genealogists Quarterly\, and the 
 FGS Forum. Her ongoing genealogical training has taken Pam all over the 
 United States for conferences\, intensive classes and workshops\, and for 
 research.  A member of the Association of Professional Genealogists\, she 
 finds that belonging to a variety of genealogical and historical 
 organizations enhances the quality of her work.\n\nPam writes\; “I 
 entered the field of genealogy after a twenty-year career as a professional 
 writer. My interest in family history began when my daughter grew curious 
 about her father's side of the family. With little information to go on\, I 
 set off to discover what I could. Before long\, I was hooked.  What started 
 as a hobby became more serious when a woman who was recovering from a 
 devastating family tragedy asked for my help. She hoped that learning more 
 about her ancestors would be healing\, and thankfully\, it did turn out to 
 be helpful.\n\nPam Vestal has been a regular speaker to our Society and a 
 GSBC member favorite!\n\n\nThe Genealogical Society of Broward County 
 (GSBC) meets monthly\non the first Sunday of every month except when there 
 is a holiday.\n\nWe are here to help you find your ancestors.\n\nVisit
