January 8th and 9th

"Genealogy: Back to the Beginning" is our theme for 2011. What better way to start the year than with organizing all the stuff collected. Do you have multiple copies of the same thing because you can not find or did not know you already had a copy?

Join us for this workshop on how to organize family history on Saturday, Jan. 8, 2011, 9:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. & Sunday, Jan. 9, 2011, 3-5 p.m. The workshop will be held at Clayton State University, 2000 University Drive, Morrow, GA, in the library, L200.


Will you plan to work on organizing your paper and computer genealogy? Have you already started a file folder system? Do you have a genealogy software program? Which one?
