GENEALOGY OF RENEE KAUFMAN
Speaker: Steve Morse
The genealogy of Renee Kaufman is a fascinating tale of how to construct a genealogy when you have very little information to begin with. You will likely get some hints and ideas from Steve's program that will encourage you to carry on n spite of the brick wall you think you are facing in your family research.
EBGS meets the 2nd Wednesday of each month, with the exception of August, at the Oakland
Family History Center Library, 4766 Lincoln Avenue, Oakland, CA.
Meetings begin at 10 a.m. Guests are always welcome, so, please join us!

FAMILYSEARCH.ORG
Speaker: Ralph Seversen
It's time once again for an update on what is new and how to navigate our way through FamilySearch.org's vast archives...and nobody does it better than Ralph Seversen.
We know this website can provide valuable clues and information that will answer questions and lead us to further understand and know our ancestors - but sometimes finding those clues or that specific information can be difficult.
We are hoping this presentation will help you better find your way through the website and discover some valuable information relating to the ancestors in your family tree.
EBGS meets every second Wednesday of each month (with the exception of August) at the Oakland Family History Center Library, 4766 Lincoln Avenue, Oakland.
Meetings begin at 10 a.m. Guests are always welcome - so, won't you join us!

WHEN SEARCH ENGINES DON'T WORK
Finding Online Sources That Are Not Digitally Indexed
Speaker: Marge Bell
The records of the Family History Library in Salk Lake City are being digitized at an amazing rate.
This includes the millions of microfilms and microfiche previously available only in the SLC library or by mail order through your local FHC. It also includes the thousands upon thousands of periodicals indexed in PERSI.
This presentation by lecture and demonstration will explain how to find and use these online records which cannot be found by doing a search for an individual at a subscription website.
It is delightful to have Marge Bell once again available to present this new class/program. Ralph Seversen from the Oakland FHC was extremely impressed with Marge's program and I am sure you will be also.
