Genealogy SIG
When: 7pm on the 2nd Wednesday of each month
Where: Fiske Genealogical Library, 1644 43rd Avenue East, Seattle, Wa 98112-3222
Our meetings focus on using Macintosh computers and other resources for researching genealogy. We try to answer questions and help point you in the right direction to find your family members. Anyone interested in genealogy is welcome to attend.
We have a lot of experience and talent in our Mac group and we'd like to tap into some of it to create a really fun and useful experience for those that chose to participate.
Lou Daly will do the basic presentations and then we will set aside a time in the middle of each meeting for our members to share their genealogical experiences, (e.g. what they wish they had know, what they did right etc.) that relate to the topic of the month. Lisa, our in house Reunion expert, has agreed to conclude the meetings going over the parts of Reunion that pertain to what ever it is that we've been discussing at that meeting. Should be some great learning for all of us.
"JUST REUNION"
Mac Genealogy
February 8, 2012, 7-9 pm,
at the Fiske Foundation Library in the basement of the Pioneers building (see below)
We have had some wonderful programs recently but we have strayed away from Reunion. So this program is "Just Reunion".
Lou Daly and Lisa Marker have their heads together to cover topics for the beginner as well as the advanced user of the Reunion database program - from basic entries to more complicated topics - with a question and answer period at the end.
Bring your laptops so you can follow along. Lou will have the presentation on the screen, as always.
Come early to research in the library and use all that good information from Gary Zimmerman. If you are not a Fiske member (and it is not required), you will get a special Mac Gen rate of $3. You will also get a better shot at the parking spaces. We suggest a $1 donation for our meeting, or $10 a year, which we donate to Fiske for the generous use of their space.
If anyone is planning to buy Reunion for the first time, let me (Diane) know and I'll contact Leister to see if our discount still applies.
Attached is the Toys for Genealogists presentation from a previous meeting.
