Branching Out: Second Steps in Genealogy Research

A more detailed continuation of Getting Started in Family History, this class is geared toward those who have already taken the Getting Started class or have done some research on their own. Participants will learn what to expect when working with vital (birth, marriage and death) records and obituaries and basic search strategies for finding them in both online and traditional sources. Online demonstrations include the Family History Library catalog and the Library database Newspaper Archive. Because this class will use internet resources, basic computer skills are recommended.

Class will take place in Meeting Room 2AB on the High Street Level of Main Library.
