November 21 Workshop

This week we looked at several examples of the types of books available at local public libraries. Many small towns have enthusiastic historians who are interested in local history and write on a particular topic for that area. 

Olaf Skye (more later on him), From the Indian Lands, Rural on the Crystal, Rural Schools of Waupaca County, and Waupaca from Arcadia Publications were a few of the books that we examined.

Annie also provided a brief review of the most efficient steps to use in locating records on FamilySearch. Follow the sequence below!
