Family History on the Go

On Saturday 9/22/15, the Little Rock, North Little Rock, and Searcy LDS Stakes hosted a Rootstech Discovery day.  There were 10 classes offered.  Daniel and I taught the Family History on the Go class. Virginia taught the My Family Stories that Bring Us Together class. Both classes were fairly well attended and the teachers were excellent! <grin>. 

The Family History on the Go class was about the two LDS Apps, Family Tree and Memories.  Family Tree is useful for doing review and some work with your FamilySearch.org family tree. Memories is a wonderful app that allows you to upload photos, stories, and audio files to be included on your FamilySearch.org family tree. I have a handout that we gave out that gives instructions on using the functions of the Memories app. I wanted to share the handouts with all of you. You can download it from this location. 

Virginia here.  The My Family Stories that Bring Us Together class talked about using the My Family booklet both printed version and online version.  Also, we talked about ways to find out your family stories using newspapers, FamilySearch books, Ancestry.com and some other tools.  You can download the handout here.
