Upcoming Monthly Program
October General Monthly Meeting
Savannah Center or Online via Zoom
Wednesday, Oct. 23, 2024 / 10:00 a.m.
Featuring: Annette Burke Lyttle
 Topic: A Deeper Dive into Family SearchFamilySearch has millions of records. Putting a name in the search form only gets you a small percentage of their indexed records. Beyond that, they have unindexed collections and other digital materials that will never show up in a general search. Learn how to dive deeply into FamilySearch's record collections and come up with amazing finds.
Speaker's Bio: Annette Burke Lyttle owns Heritage Detective, LLC, providing professional genealogical services in research, education, and writing. She speaks on a variety of genealogical topics at the international, national, state, and local levels and loves helping people uncover and share their family stories.
