•  Genealogy Using the Internet
 Are you timid about using the internet. Not sure if there is any information out there for you? Have you tried to look something up, but have gotten nowhere? This session will show you how to go about searching for information on the internet, whether it be looking for a distant relative, finding a program to publish your family tree or locating a translation website. Tips, terminology and software will also be discussed. Handouts of site links will be given.
