WMGS October Meeting
October 5, 2016 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Please join us for our monthly meeting, October 5th, at which the guest speaker, Dave Robison (our president) will present a talk entitled On-Line Search Strategies — Fishing in the Biggest Ponds
This presentation and various iterations have been given at several genealogy meetings and classes as well as the 2015 NERGC conference in Providence, Rhode Island. It is designed to assist every genealogical researcher from the proverbial “newbie” to the seasoned professional. Using the philosophy of “You Don’t Know What You Don’t Know,” Dave will help you get started from scratch if you’re just beginning or pull you out of your ruts after 20 years of hard-core research! Keep an open mind and bring a notebook!
Key points:
- The “Rules of the Internet Road”
- So many websites – So little time
- The value of subscription sites
- The value of free sites
- Google your Genealogy
- Social Media and why you need it
