What was most surprising or something you’d like to see happen next year?”</em></p> <p>And here is what you told us (responses edited for clarity and length):</p> <p><strong>Anita Rodgers</strong> said: “More of Crista Cowan – More day-to-day researching techniques. Study the number of people in attendance at the aired sessions…You had so many gifted genealogists in attendance.”</p> <p><strong>Chris Ferraiolo:</strong> “My favorite parts of the conference were learning what was coming down the pike from Ancestry, how to better use WATO and of course Blaine Bettinger’s lecture on Genetic Genealogy and its effect on Law Enforcement — I really hope that last one alleviated fears. Next year, I’d like to see more variety. More discussions about other ethnic groups. </p> <p><strong>Rebekah Jones:</strong> “For me, one of my favorites was Cheri’s presentation on tackling difficult stories. This is a topic that isn’t talked about much, and I was so thrilled to see it discussed, especially on the Livestream.”</p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="390" src="https://63145b77e6.nxcli.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/72757434_2540140049366248_6961914589772513280_o-scaled-1024x390.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-3579" srcset="https://www.tnggn.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/72757434_2540140049366248_6961914589772513280_o-scaled-1024x390.jpg 1024w, https://www.tnggn.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/72757434_2540140049366248_6961914589772513280_o-scaled-300x114.jpg 300w, https://www.tnggn.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/72757434_2540140049366248_6961914589772513280_o-768x292.jpg 768w, https://www.tnggn.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/72757434_2540140049366248_6961914589772513280_o-scaled-1536x584.jpg 1536w, https://www.tnggn.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/72757434_2540140049366248_6961914589772513280_o-scaled-2048x779.jpg 2048w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure> <p><strong>Jamie Mayhew:</strong> My favorite part of RootsTech was being able to share it with my granddaughter.
