The May 14, 2011 meeting

by Julie Pickett on 05/02/11

I hope you can join us on May 14th as we kick off our first official meeting with a great training on the incredible resource of the Family History Library and Familysearch.org. Immediately following the training, you will have the option to drive to the local branch of the Family History Library to see what resources are available. Margot, one of the faithful volunteers at the center, recently informed me that they now have an Ancestry.com and Footnote.com subscription for patrons to use on site!

Also at the next meeting, we hope to have a couple of record transcription projects underway on which volunteers can get started. If you have ever benefitted from somebody else's labor of making their community's records available for your own personal research, this will be a great way to pay them back!

See you soon!

I love what you are doing and would like to help but I live in Aurora Colorado. Is there anything I can do for you from here? I can do data entry but you would have to send it to me. I can do research in this area also.
