I’ve been hard at work this week to capture material I present in my lectures with updated hints, tips, and tricks to help you make the most of your online genealogy research time.
“A Week of Genealogy” is now available at the Allen County Public Library. If you like the book, please feel free to order a copy from me. http://smartcat.acpl.lib.in.us/?itemid=|acpl-bibs|ocn871005709
The Washington DC Family History Center 8th Annual Conference was great! It is always an honor to be invited to speak. I enjoyed the audiences for my talks, and learned from them, too.
I’m hoping that their will be a lot of new blogs out there after my talk. You CAN do this! And maybe it will help distant cousins to find you.
The other speakers that I had the pleasure to listen to were very professional, and interesting. The Keynote speaker talked about his work on the Baltimore Immigration Memorial Project.
If you need to download the syllabi, please do it before Sunday night (4 May 2014). Remember that the syllabus for Dr. Ezell’s talk, Genealogy Apps for Tablets and Smartphones, is not included in the download all option and has to be downloaded separately.
The snowed out “Introduction to Genealogy” class has been rescheduled and will occur on 18 March.
The people who registered for the first class have priority, but you can check for availability by calling the West County Library 410-222-6277.
This week I was invited back to give some talks in the Spring.
April will be about Internet Searching for Genealogists and May about newspapers.
Internet Searching for Genealogists Tuesday, Apr 15 from 6:30 to 8:30 pm
Genealogy: Using Newspapers Tuesday, May 13 from 6:30 to 8:30 pm
