JEFFERSON COUNTY GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY


Beginning Genealogy Class

THE CLASS IS FULL

NO MORE REGISTRATIONS ACCEPTED

An accurate family history requires more than going online. While many records are now available through the internet, more is needed than typing a name into “google”. Jefferson County Genealogical Society offers a 5 week Beginning Genealogy Class designed to provide an overview of the basic steps for successful genealogical research. The class can be a helpful refresher to researchers who have started to work on their family history as well as for those who are truly “beginning”

The use of genealogical forms, vital records, and census records will be covered. We will give an introduction to additional types of records such as land, probate, military, and immigration as well. Attention will be paid to online research, but you do not have to use a computer to take the class, as all types of resources will be covered.

The class will be held on 5 Monday afternoons October 12th through November 9th from 1 to 3:30 at the Historical Research Center, 13692 Airport Cutoff Road. The cost is $30 for Genealogy Society members and $45 for non-members (one year membership included in cost).
