People new to family tree research often assume that these days “it’s all online.” Unfortunately, this is NOT the case, and if you are not willing to “Step Away From the Computer” you’ll miss many of the facts that will solve your family tree puzzles.

This program explores the topic of taking family history research field trips… to a local courthouse, a historical society, or to some town or another country where your ancestors once lived. Practical advice is given regarding how to prepare and to make the best use of your time “in the field.”

This is a FREE event but registration is required.
