The new year can be a time of looking back as well as forward!  Our new genealogy series will cover the basics to help you begin researching your family history, as well as special topics for sharpening your focus.

This session will cover:
  • FamilySearch continued (search tab, using indexed & non-indexed records, Wiki, Catalog)
  • Finding secondary sources (genealogies, county histories, newspapers, etc.) online and at State & County Archives, historical & genealogical societies, libraries, etc.
