Host Scott Fisher opens the show with David Allen Lambert, Chief Genealogist of the New England History Genealogical Society and AmericanAncestors.org. The guys begin with Fisher talking about his research breakthrough after 39 years! He'll explain the key to breaking the brick wall. David then reveals the happy news that the Family History Library in Salt Lake City is expanding their hours. Hear what the new hours will be. Then, a story is out about a man who met a psychic who delivered a message from his late father. David then tells about HIS experience with a psychic. (Yes, he's freaked out!) DNA is again bringing closure to a family… this time to the victim of a notorious serial killer. You'll know the name. No one would have ever imagined where the earliest evidence of tobacco usage has been found… on a bombing range in a western state. David will share the details.
Fisher then visits with Marion Burk Wood. Marion has written a book, "Planning A Future For Your Family's Past." It's an important topic for everyone. Marion has some great thoughts on how to get your genealogical collection in order for after you're… well… done!
Then the Tie Die Genealogist, Dan Ford, joins the show to share his "ordinary person with an extraordinary find" story. It reads like a mystery novel, but it's all true! A definite Halloween leftover!
Then, David rejoins Fisher for a pair of questions on Ask Us Anything.
That's all this week on Extreme Genes, America's Family History Show!
