Friday, February 9, at 1 p.m.
10 Million Names presented by Cynthia Evans, 10 Million Names Research Director. A presentation via the New England Historic Genealogical Society.
10 Million Names is a collaborative project dedicated to recovering the names of the estimated 10 million men, women, and children of African descent who were enslaved in pre- and post-colonial America (specifically, the territory that would become the United States) between the 1500s and 1865. The project seeks to amplify the voices of people who have been telling their family stories for centuries, connect researchers and data partners with people seeking answers to family history questions, and expand access to data, resources, and information about enslaved African Americans.
 
Advanced registration is required to attend our February meeting virtually. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. The meeting begins at 1 p.m. In-person attendees do not need to pre-register.
