FamilySearch is a powerful tool for finding out more about your ancestors, and it’s free to use! They have records you cannot find anywhere else. Our seminar will give you an overview of FamilySearch, show you how you can use it to find out more about your ancestors, and share valuable tips and tricks! And find out about fun activities like finding famous people you are related to! This is a live demonstration. Feel free to bring your laptop to the in-person meeting.
