The Minnesota Genealogical Society will host a free webinar, Genealogical Research Using Facebook’s 4,000+ Genealogical Pages and Groups, presented by Katherine R. Willson, on Wednesday, September 2, at 8:00 p.m. Eastern time.
California Facebook is quickly becoming a favorite resource among genealogical researchers for its vast networking capabilities. With many thousands of regional and surname-specific genealogy groups, researchers are discovering relatives, sharing photos, finding obituaries and breaking down brick walls that have blocked them for years — often within 24 hours of posting a query!
This presentation introduces members to Facebook as a genealogical research tool and guides them through the process of efficiently utilizing Facebook for specific genealogical needs.
Register here to attend. A link to Ms. Willson’s list of more than 5,000 Facebook groups and pages is available on this blog in the Facebook for Canadian Genealogy section.
