"What do I do with the pictures? - Organizing and using photos the digital way"

Jessie Louise McClennan is an Information Technology professional with over 30 years of experience in the field.  After starting her family history research 3 years ago, she quickly developed an interest in the software and online applications available to support genealogical research.
 
Using her home computer and tools available at local libraries, she rapidly traced her own ancestry from Texas back to the Revolutionary War North Carolina and has met numerous new relatives.   Her motto has become “Your history is there for you to claim”.
 
This session will focus on PC tools to organize and use vintage photographs.   We will discuss the standards to use when scanning photographs, organizing techniques for images, and presentation tools to share finds with other family members.


Guests are welcome.  Admission is free but donations are appreciated. For Information, call John Lindsay at (818) 349-0878.
