RootsTech 2021 runs February 25th–27th this year and since they have released the listing of sessions I've finally found time to make a must view list. I'm so thankful it is free this year. I consider myself an Advanced Genealogist having researched for 30+ years. I strive to produce professional level research but I have no desire to become an Accredited or a Certified Genealogist. Your list may vary depending on your interest & experience level. The entire list can be downloaded at the RootsTech.org web page along with additional information about the event.
