ANNOUNCING THE SIXTH
ST. TAMMANY GENEALOGICAL
SOCIETY WEBINAR –
MAY 1, 2021 – ONLINE!
An Adoption Story –
In Search for His German Roots
with Rhonda Roederer
This is the story of an adoptee who felt compelled, not only to search for his birth parents, but also to identify the immigrant ancestors who are responsible for his German ancestry. Armed with a DNA test and a burning desire for the truth, he takes a wild ride on an emotional roller coaster. This journey ends with a powerful impact on the adoptee and a life-changing revelation for a new-found cousin of the adoptee.
Rhonda Roederer is a full-time professional genealogist and educator. She is the president and founder of Heritage With Heart and a volunteer instructor at the People Program, a non-profit organization for people age 50 years and above. Rhonda currently conducts a virtual course entitled “Family History Detective” at the People Program. A Louisiana native, Rhonda retired from the oil industry after a long career as a consultant micropaleontologist.
Rhonda has been following her passion for family history for over 30 years, in particular through research of her own German roots. She recently gained media attention with a story which centered on the common heritage shared by her enslaved and slaveholder family members and the newly-established connections made between their present-day descendants.
