Seminar Description
Take this whole three-part series and build your genealogy research toolbox. Register below for all three seminars or select the individual seminars that appeal the most to you.
Take a tour of the underutilized FamilySearch.org website to see what it has to offer genealogy researchers. This course will include a review of this free resource and all the research opportunities it offers, along with other tools useful for genealogists and family historians.
So, you think you know Ancestry? We will take a tour of the Ancestry.com website to see what it has to offer genealogy researchers. We will include tips and tricks on how to get the most from the website.
If you have exhausted your old standby resources and need some new records to review, here are some other databases to check out. Maybe you have heard of these sites, but never visited them. We will review Fold3.com, a primarily military site; Newspapers.com; American Ancestors; and FindMyPast.
