Family Tree Maker & Ancestry.ca Seminar
Sunday, April 22, 2012 Ottawa, Ontario
SOLD OUT
Program:
Lesley Anderson of Ancestry.ca and Rick Roberts of GlobalGenealogy.com will present a full day Seminar where you can learn how to best use Ancestry and Family Tree Maker to research, record and share your family history.
The agenda is evenly split between teaching you how to navigate and find the information that you are looking for in Ancestry's online archives of millions of genealogical records, and learning the ins and outs of using Family Tree Maker software to record, manage and share your findings in both printed and digital formats.
Attendees will also learn how to use your Ancestry subscription from within Family Tree Maker to access and download information to your family file, and how to create private or public online trees that are synchronized with your FTM family file.
Both presenters will demonstrate their points using a computer projected to a large screen. The Ancestry portion will also use online access to Ancestry.ca in real time. It is not necessary for anyone to bring a laptop because all topics will be shown on the projection screen, including any responses to questions from attendees.
GlobalGenealogy.com will have a significant book, eBook and software display where anyone who is interested can browse and buy the available products. If there are items from the GlobalGenealogy.com website that you would like to evaluate at this event, please let us know and we will bring them with us.
