Legacy Family Tree will host a free webinar, Smarter Search Strategies for Genealogy, presented by Thomas MacEntee, today, May 5, at 10:00 p.m. Eastern time, and the recording will likely be available the next day.
The majority of genealogists begin their research online and often become frustrated with the lack of results. The cause might not be a lack of records at the specific site but the manner in which you’re performing the search! While basic search techniques work on all the major genealogy sites, you need to power up your search skills to get the most out of niche genealogy websites and uncover those hidden record sets!
Participants will learn basic online searching for the major genealogy websites. We’ll progress to understanding specific search parameters for specific sites. Next, we’ll discuss whether it is worth the time to track searches as well as how to keep track of all the best ways of searching for a specific site. Finally, we’ll explore different wildcard characters and search methodology to get the most out of a website.
Register to watch the live webinar. Look tomorrow for the recording in Legacy Family Tree’s webinar library. It should be available to watch for free for up to seven days.
