"Trees, Trees, Trees……."
Presented by Peggy Jude
This presentation focuses on the most critical tool for any genealogist: the family tree itself. We will explore all aspects of family trees. From finding and using trees, to the key differences, benefits, and pitfalls of using online community trees versus private desktop software. Practical tips and strategies for creating, organizing, maintaining, and backing up your trees to build a more credible and reliable family history.
