APG is pleased to announce the next webinar in our "New Voices" series for members. Join us on 16 November 2025 from 3:30–5:00 PM for Coast Salish: A Pacific Northwest Sea of Opportunities with presenter Masen Brandon, sponsored by APG’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee. This event is free and open to APG members only.
The Salish Sea region of the North American Pacific Northwest hosts the land of numerous Coast Salish nations. As far as canoes can paddle, opportunity abounds. Relations span borders, languages revive and restrictive laws wane, despite interference from outside governments causing Coast Salish nations intense strain. Families made hard choices when aggressors blighted opportunities. Many historical narratives of the Pacific Northwest center colonial perspectives, eschewing Indigeneity.
This deficit means we must bring ancestral voices to the limelight. How can I prevent harm when researching these mighty cedar branches? Who can I learn from? What contexts included Coast Salish people in records? What value does genealogy have? Join us for this enlightening and thoughtful presentation.
About New Voices
APG's New Voices Series was created to diversify the narrative in genealogical research by providing a platform for emerging voices in the field, particularly those focusing on under-represented communities. The goal is to create a series of educational webinars which aim to enrich the knowledge base of APG members, fostering a broader understanding of historical and cultural issues impacting genealogical research. The New Voices series presents views of speakers that are not necessarily the opinions of APG. APG members can watch previous New Voices webinars in the APG Webinar Library (login required). more info...

About the Presenters:
Ciarán Wallace is Co-Director of the Virtual Record Treasury of Ireland (VRTI), an international partnership working to restore seven centuries of Irish historical records destroyed in the Battle of the Four Courts, Dublin, in 1922. This free online resource has gathered over 350,000 replacement records to date. Ciarán completed his PhD on Dublin's municipal politics at Trinity College Dublin (2010), where he subsequently held a Government of Ireland Post-doctoral Fellowship. Having lectured at universities in Ireland and Britain, he returned to Dublin in 2016 at the start of the Virtual Treasury’s work.

Brian Gurrin is the census specialist on the Virtual Record Treasury of Ireland project. Brian has written extensively on census taking in Ireland and is interested in the demographics of Ireland, and its regions, in the pre-Famine period, with a particular interest in religious demographics. His research during the Virtual Treasury project has seen the names and details of more than 80,000 individuals, recorded in the lost nineteenth-century censuses of Ireland, being identified and introduced into the Virtual Treasury’s Population Portal. His joint authored (with Kerby Miller and Liam Kennedy) volume, The Irish religious censuses of the 1760s, was published by the Irish Manuscripts Commission in 2022. His joint authored (with Liam Kennedy, Donald MacRaild and Lewis Darwen) volume, The Death Census of Black ’47: eyewitness accounts of Ireland’s Great Famine, was published in 2023.
