Adventures in Genealogy

“Adventures in Genealogy” ~
with Elizabeth Williams

Have recent family events inspired you to research your family roots? Do you want to know if your neighbor is related to you? Do you have some family documents but want to know how to organize them and make a family tree?

Elizabeth Williams will show you where to start, what tools to use; and in particular, how to use Ancestrylibrary.com. She will also give you hints on how to verify connections and how to use offline tools.

There will be a little history of the ancestors who first populated our East Coast and some fun stories that you may discover in your own search as Elizabeth did in hers.
