A “Thousand Heraldries, and Twilight Saints, and Dim Emblazonings”:
My Ventures and Adventures in Genealogy and Heraldry
In a lively and richly illustrated talk, D. Brenton Simons, an international leader in the field of family history, will discuss the genealogical field today, including important DNA advances, in the context of the groundbreaking international work of AmericanAncestors.org. He will also recount his own experiences in the study of heraldry, share numerous rarely seen armorial examples from personal and institutional collections, and discuss important connections in genealogy and heraldry between the United States and the United Kingdom.
