February 21st Meeting

During this meeting we discussed in detail how to download images and documents from FamilySearch.org to the personal computer.  How to best use the FamilySearch hints in Family Tree Maker as well as some of the primary entry process in Family Tree Maker.  All the attendees used their own computers to find their own information and experiment with how to do the discussed processes.  Then there was the discussion of how to organize the digital genealogy, the use of Worldcat / Interlibrary loan to get historical books. and finally the master genealogy checklist.  Use the following links to get to the key information:
