Save March 26-27 for History for Ukraine


Want to support Ukraine relief efforts AND learn from well-known history and genealogy experts?

Get ready for History for Ukraine, the star-studded live marathon of talks assembled by Nathalie Pithers and a team of volunteers, taking place March 26-27!

Here are some of the speakers already confirmed to participate: 

  • Josh Taylor, President of the New York Genealogy and Biography Society
  • Judy Russell, "The Legal Genealogist"
  • Amy Johnson Crow, Host of Generations Cafe podcast and #52Ancestors originator
  • Earl Charles Spencer, best-selling history author and founder of Althorp Literary Festival
  • Dr Janina Ramirez, BBC documentary maker, author, and President of the Gloucester History Festival
  • Dr Wanda Wyporska, head of the Society of Genealogists
More speakers will be announced shortly. A few days ago, Family Tree Magazine conducted an interview with Nathalie Pithers. In her words, "History for Ukraine is a combination of Live Aid and Red Nose Day, but for history!"

Although this special event is entirely free, donations will be gratefully accepted! (In fact, donations can be made in advance if you wish.)

All proceeds go to DEC Ukrainian Humanitarian Appeal which is administered by the British Red Cross.

Please mark your calendars! See you at History for Ukraine on March 26-27.
