Tuesday's Tip - how did it get to be December already?

Most of us are now busy (some of you shoveling snow!) and others of us preparing for the holidays. Whether you have a large family or a small family to plan for, the reality is that we tend to get stressed and overwhelmed during the holidays. Oftentimes a walk and a little down time with our genealogy helps calm that stress. The holiday season is a good time to give some thought to our goals for the upcoming year (2017 - yikes!) and it is always a good time to take an hour or two to learn more about the process.

With that in mind - check out the Legacy Family Tree Software webinars that are on tap for the remainder of 2016 - only five webinars are left this year. Whether you want to

(1) learn a bit more about breaking through brick walls (Sharon Atkins is going to help us hone our detective skills),
(2) research and resources in the Midwest (hoping that Nebraska is part of Luana Darby presentation),
(3) trace European Ancestors (Julie Goucher has a wealth of information to share),
(4) work with negative evidence (another great topic from Judy G. Russell), or
(5) learn how to navigate and take advantage of Billion Graves (with Garth Fitzner)
there is definitely something for every genealogist and family historian.

My Tuesday's Tip is to get some walks in and either watch live or catch the recording of one of more of these webinars and enjoy the holiday season.

In the meantime, my project for December is to work with the census list (found at the Search Tab) - I will be filling in the blanks for families in Nebraska (working on my Murphy family in the Midwest). Do you have a project you are working on in December? Why not share it with the rest of us.

  1. The ongoing project is to link, consolidate, process the many many documents and files that are digitized, but, NOT represented on the data base.

    I'll be at it for some time. It is a great winter project.
