Getting the Most out of FamilySearch Part I

Before we got into the main topic, there was a demonstration of using the flat bed scanner for slides.  Next we shared the AncestryDNA Thrulines new view and discussed its use in genealogy.  We had an additional discussion of 52 Questions and asked if anyone else wanted to be included.  If you want to get the 1 question a month, then send a note to Lynn Baker (bakerlynnd@gmail.com) to be added to the list.
