Our May 22nd session focused on
     (1) Ancestry updates and
     (2) Creating a book with Family Tree Maker. 

We reviewed several new tools provided by Ancestry.com (1) TreeTags for use with your trees, (2) New DNA Matching tools and (3) DNA Thrulines.  If you are interested in these updates, please review the slides used for last nights meeting on Ancestry updates: Click here.

We then spent time reviewing how to create a book using Family Tree Maker.  Each person used their own computers to build a sample book.  They had experimented with Family Tree Maker using the knowledge and slides from our May 8th meeting and came with excellent questions.  Everyone who had Family Tree Maker finished the meeting with their own sample book and a strategy to start using the various "collections" in Publish to start creating pdf files or printouts of their work.  All paid members of our club received the instructions from the 8th May meeting.
