Wednesday, May 10, 11 a.m. & 7 p.m.: “Tips & Talk” at the Oakland FamilySearch Center. Preregistration requested. This week: Kim Miller discusses “The Family History Guide.” If you aren’t familiar with The Family History Guide website, you are missing out on valuable information to help you in your research. This FREE genealogy learning website offers a guide to using FamilySearch, Ancestry, My Heritage and Find My Past. In addition, you will learn how to use The Family History Guide’s learning modules to more effectively research in different states, countries and ethnicities. The Family History Guide works hand in hand with FamilySearch’s Research Wiki but offers more depth and breadth in many areas. Feel free to bring a lunch and hang out afterwards to get help with your genealogy and/or use the library’s many resources. Free.
