I present lectures in-person and/or via livestream for groups large and small. Each lecture includes a graphic presentation with handouts providing even greater topical depth. I have several lectures available that I continuously update with my latest research. Also, you can contact me (bob@nordicfamilyhistory.com) about preparing a custom lecture specifically for your organization.
