Legacy Webinar, November 1, 2013

Friday, November 1, "Dear Myrtle," who has been around as a blogger for quite some time, will discuss how "Ancestry Trees Can Jump Start Your Research."

Legacy's description of the presentation: "Find out why Ol' Myrt gave up the notion to avoid sharing her family tree online. Secret: It's all about collaboration. This webinar guides participants through the process of creating a GEDCOM file in the Legacy Family Tree software, uploading the file to Ancestry.com, and looking for 'reasonable' matches using Ancestry's shaking leaf. We then focus on deeper searches using the 'magnifying glass' and analysis of reliability of matches."

If you have Family Tree Maker, you can upload your tree automatically to Ancestry. This webinar will show you how to share your information if you are using Legacy software.

The decision to share your information online is personal, of course. There are advantages and drawbacks, and it seems that the webinar will discuss some of those concerns.
