In this episode, join me as I speak with Robin R Foster about her insightful book, My Best Genealogy Tips: Finding Previously Enslaved Ancestors. We delve into the world of family genealogy and discuss effective strategies for tracing your heritage, particularly when it comes to uncovering the stories of ancestors from the Caribbean who were formerly enslaved. Discover valuable resources and tips that will help you navigate the complexities of family history and embrace your cultural heritage with confidence.
