Speaking This was one of the best workshops I have ever attended. Ms. Moughty was engaging, thorough, well-organized, and knew her subject well. Her audiovisual presentation was terrific. I would recommend Ms. Moughty for any type of genealogy workshop. I loved her handout, it has a wealth of information... Donna is stellar! She is energetic and concise; it's a rare combination with genealogists. Love Donna's power point -- everything of importance is magnified and it really helps to involve/entertain the listener. Speaker a pleasure to listen to & learn from. She is knowledgeable & gives lecture in an easy manner. Research Trip I could never have navigated all these repositories in a week without the orientation and support you provided. It would have taken me several trips and far greater expense to find the documents and information I found in one week with you. This was a fabulous opportunity. Thank you for making it available to us. The trip was great from beginning to end and the attention that you gave to everyone's individual research throughout the week was beyond my expectations. You did not mention Helen Kelly above so I just have to say that I thought she was extrordinary. The passion and joy that she has for her work ( I hesitate to call it work) is so wonderful. Thanks for a fruitful and fun trip. Well done. I wouldn't have been able to to achieve the progress I made on my genealogy in those 6 days without the professional help and guidance Donna Moughty provided.
