Researching one’s family story over the generations is a fascinating journey.  This course is intended to provide the beginning family historian/genealogist with the knowledge to assist in that endeavor. The material will be presented in twelve sessions.  The first half of the class will deal with the basics of family history/genealogy and will explore the records our ancestors left behind.  This will be followed by discussions and demonstrations of personal computers for organizing and reporting information and using the internet as a resource.
