Right Name, Wrong Man? Wrong Name, Right Man?

is the title of one of the lectures on:-
2008 Genealogy Conference and Cruise: "an incomparable lineup of all-star speakers and 2008 will be no exception. In fact, in 2008 we'll be joined by TWELVE of the most sought-after genealogists and technical experts in the world, including the pre-eminent genealogists from the U.S., England, and Ireland."

The Identity Crisis: Right Name, Wrong Man? Wrong Name, Right Man?
by Elizabeth Shown Mills, CG, CGL, FASG, FNGS

What do we do with ancestors whose names don't 'match' from one record to the next? Or those who pose the opposite problem: too many men or women of the same name? This session examines social customs and naming patterns that cause ancestors to be known by different names, then offers techniques by which we can establish that any two records do or do not apply to the same person.


The Itinerary
Journey with us to these exotic ports of call. Spend your days exploring the local sites, wandering the colorful street markets, or just soaking up the sun on a tropical beach. You can go on a nature expedition, take an historic tour, visit Blackbeard's Castle, take a ride on a submarine or underwater scooter, visit a butterfly farm, tour a colonial plantation, swim with the dolphins, or choose from a long list of other optional guided shore excursions.
