This meeting will aid experienced genealogists, but features several classes of special interest to beginners. For example, see "Genealogy 101: The Basics," Parts1 and 2 -- by Deborah Lord Campisano, a well-known local genealogy researcher and teacher. Also, see "Evaluating Three Computerized Genealogical Record Systems" to help those trying to choose a family history program to store their family data; by Phil Hysell (Brother's Keeper Genealogy Software), Greg Claypool (Family Tree Maker, Version 16), and Mel Arnold (Personal Ancestry File or PAF). These are among the "free" classes included in the $5 general admission fee.
We are very excited about our roomier location and (we hope) pleasant Louisville autumn weather. We hope to see you in Louisville on October 11th!
OUR GUEST GENEALOGIST THIS YEAR IS MICHAEL JOHN NEILL. He is known nationally as an interesting, informative speaker. Go to http://www.rootdig.com/ to read some of his articles. Mr. Neill will present four talks at our seminar (cost: $10 per talk).
SEVEN CLASSES ARE INCLUDED IN $5 GENERAL ADMISSION FEE. Other activities included in the $5 general admission fee include a silent auction, booths for vendors and organizations, and a consultation with a local professional genealogist. Those who register in advance can order a box lunch, or bring your own, and discuss family history with others at your table. You can register at the door; however, you cannot buy a box lunch unless you order in advance. Some classes could fill, so registration in advance is recommended.
