In the past, our organization has helped with the promotion of webinars that the Los Angeles Public Library's Genealogy Garage puts on for the general public. Even though we are a Hispanic genealogy group, we promote the education and knowledge that one may obtain from these presentations. Who knows if your ancestors may have some connection to these areas. Since they our free online via YouTube or Facebook, we are letting our members know that these courses are available to you if you sign in to YouTube or Facebook. Information to see the streaming live are below.
One of the most powerful online tools for genealogy research (and free, by the way) is the website FamilySearch.org. They have been filming records from all over the world for decades—and not just records for Latter-Day Saints members. Family History Library Research Specialist Lauren Wake will show us how to best use the powerhouse genealogy website FamilySearch.org. To watch this 0nline presentation, hit the url below:
