Riverton FamilySearch Library

If this library doesn't doesn't look familiar to you, listen up! This is the new library that was created when the FHC in the south Salt Lake area were consolidated. If you missed my post about it, go back a couple of months for a viral tour of this library. This library also holds classes of all sorts! Go to this list and you will find the perfect class for your needs!

Afraid of Making Mistakes?

Are you afraid of making mistakes in new FamilySearch because you don't feel that you know what you are doing? Then training.familysearch.org is for you.  There are practice exercises that you can work through so that the basics of the new FamilySearch program are reinforced in your brain! The nice thing is that you aren't working in the actual database so you CAN'T mess anything up!

BYU Family History Classes on October 10, 2010

BYU has fabulous classes that they offer on the second and fourth Sundays of the month. Here is the latest schedule! We have so much right in our own backyard! Let's use it!

Did You Know?

Did you know that there are 81 lessons available online at familysearch.org? Who says you have to go places and spend money to strengthen your genealogy skills? These classes are FREE and there for the taking! Grab hold and take off!

Expand Your Mind!

Genealogy is a lifelong pursuit. It can't and won't be done in a day! It's always useful to learn a little each day. Try to do one genealogy activity each day. Maybe read that article that you cut out of a magazine months ago, file five papers into your filing system, or spend one hour labeling your pictures. Once you get in the habit of doing something each day, you will find that you are making progress! Progress is good, even by baby steps!
