PAT GORDON (patg flash.net)
holds a master's degree in journalism from Texas Christian University
and is a former newspaper reporter who now teaches journalism at a
Fort Worth area university.
Grounded in a variety of family
research techniques, she has developed an unrivalled skill in
presenting the in's and out's, why's and how's of preparing, printing
and publishing the dedicated researcher's family history. She is a
freelance writer who is involved in working on her family history as
well as a county history.
As a fifth-generation Texan, she likes
to place her ancestors in the social setting in which they lived. This
often leads her research away from courthouses to newspapers and
university archives. She served two terms as president of the Fort
Worth Genealogical Society and one term as vice president and editor
of the monthly newsletter. She has conducted numerous classes and
sessions in various areas of family history and research and joined
the Angelina College genealogy lecture staff in 2002. |
