British Isles Study Group

BRITISH STUDY GROUP GOALS
The goal of the British Isles Study Group is to learn about their British ancestors using many available resources. Study Group Facilitator (open), one of our instructors and lecturers for our society and others.
BSG Leader Info
BSG Leader: Susan Petersen. Email Susan at british@lcgsco.org to join this group to learn more about your British ancestry!
Susan became interested in genealogy about 10 yrs ago after reuniting with some maternal first cousins in Ontario who had photos, names, and dates about my grandfather who came from Scotland via Canada. Her maiden name is Fitzpatrick; this branch immigrated to Canada during the potato famine. As you can imagine, there is quite a bit of mingling between the Scots, the Irish, and the English.
She has spent a lot of time on Find My Past and Scotland’s people. She loves the fact that Ancestry.com keeps adding new records, so there are always new surprises that keeps her interested. Susan is very excited about this group reforming so all British members can share information, discuss roadblocks, and ultimately help each other advance our research!
