Using the Internet for Genealogy Research

Tuesday,
January 21st, at 6 p.m., Westerly Library is pleased to host a
Genealogy Workshop, conducted by Susan Cline, a professional genealogist.

 This
workshop will concentrate on the features of numerous websites that are used
for genealogical research.  Both paid
sites (such as Ancestry.com), and free sites will be examined and described, as
well as sites that are devoted to specific countries, such as Ireland or Canada.  There are also sites that contain military
records, naturalization records, state censuses, and some that may have images
of original documents.  Every day, there
are more and more records being placed on the internet.  This workshop can help you find them!

Participants
may bring a laptop, although this is not a pre-requisite to participating in
the class.

Programs at the library are free, open to the
public, and handicapped accessible.
