Legacy's September Webinars

Wednesday, September 14: Judy Russell will present "The Treasure Trove of Legislative Petitions" for intermediate level researchers. She says our ancestors petitioned our government with concerns about forming counties, building bridges and highways, or other matters of public concern.


Friday, September 16: Richard Thomas will talk about Clooz software, which is used to capture and analyze document information before transferring the events into Legacy Family Tree. (He is the co-owner of the company that sells the software.)  The presentation is directed at intermediate and advanced researchers.


Tuesday, September 20: Rick Sayre's webinar is called "Finding Evidence of Kinship in Military Records." Also for intermediate researchers, the talk will cover pensions, service records, medical records, etc. but suggests that it is usually necessary to consult both online and textual military records.


Wednesday, September 21: Devin Ashby is a project manager for Family Search and his presentation is an introduction to familysearch.org for first time users/beginners. He says, "We'll discuss Family Tree, Memories, Search, Indexing, and the “My Family” booklet."


Wednesday, September 28: Jonathan Shea will present "Beginning Polish Genealogy." His talk is geared toward intermediate researchers, and he will explore using document sources in the US to find the ancestral birthplace before discussing archives in Poland.
