Bucks County Genealogical Society meeting and presentation:

"Great-Grandpa Bought A Bridge: Genealogical Scams, Frauds and Hoaxes" presented by Gideon Hill Deception in genealogy has a long history. Unfortunately for the modern researcher, the legacy of genealogists who were less than honest may impact the results of our efforts even today.

This presentation will evaluate deception in the context of the Genealogical Proof Standard while taking a bemused, retrospective look at some of the more notable scams, frauds, and hoaxes from the past.
