About the presenter
Macentee-100What happens when a “tech guy” with a love for history gets laid off during The Great Recession of 2008? You get Thomas MacEntee, a genealogy professional who’s also a blogger, educator, author, social media connector, online community builder and more.

Thomas was laid off after a 25-year career in the information technology field, so he started his own genealogy-related business called High Definition Genealogy. He also created an online community of over 3,000 family history bloggers known as GeneaBloggers. His most recent endeavor, Hack Genealogy, is an attempt to “re-purpose today’s technology for tomorrow’s genealogy.”

Thomas describes himself as a lifelong learner with a background in a multitude of topics who has finally figured out what he does best: teach, inspire, instigate, and serve as a curator and go-to-guy for concept nurturing and inspiration. Thomas is a big believer in success, and that we all succeed when we help each other find success.

Welcome to FamilySearch Indexing! Free webinar by FamilySearch's Devin Ashby now online

The recording of today's webinar, "Welcome to FamilySearch Indexing!," by Devin Ashby is now online for free for a limited time at www.FamilyTreeWebinars.com. Devin taught how to index records using the FamilySearch Indexing software. He also explained the background and history of indexing, where FamilySearch fits in, and showed a preview of the new indexing software to come in the near future. Most of all, he showed how we can each "pay it forward" a bit. A few comments from our viewers:
  • I have had indexing on my mind for some time. Looks like there is almost zero learning curve. This should motivate me and many others to jump in. The water looks nice and warm at the beginners' end of the pool! And I surely have been a "user". Now I can give a little back. Even considering just all the Legacy webinars I've viewed, I need to give back plenty. Thanks for such a worthwhile afternoon!
  • Excited to get back to indexing. You are so right it is a way to give back.
  • EXCITING, INSPIRATIONAL. We have a Family History club of Seniors (av. age ~70) that I want to share this video with & explain how they can volunteer for indexing and at same time learn to use(search) FamilySearch more effectively for their own genealogical studies!
  • I was so happy to learn about indexing today. I wasn't aware of this project before. It's a great way to give back while searching for your own family. Thanks again for a great webinar!

October 2014 Webinar – Hunting for Henry: A Case Study Using Collaterals

[ISGS Webinar Logo-Small for Webinar Branding

Join us on October 14, for Hunting for Henry: A Case Study Using Collaterals with Teresa Steinkamp McMillin, where you will learn about the importance of studying an ancestor's associates can help solve a genealogical mystery.

Date: Tuesday, October 14, 2014, 8:00 pm Central

Description: Henry Steren was a German immigrant who lived in Quincy, Illinois. The United States records that were created about him indicate only that he was from the Province of Hanover in Germany. This lecture will detail how his town of origin and parents were identified, in spite of the lack of records naming him. Carefully researching each of his associates and correlating all available evidence reveals the origins of Henry. Use of the Genealogical Proof Standard is demonstrated.

Presenter: Teresa Steinkamp McMillin, CG

Today's webinar was one for the ages. Do not miss it! The recording of today's webinar, "The Fair Court: Records of Chancery Courts," by Judy Russell is now online for free for a limited time at www.FamilyTreeWebinars.com. A few comments from our viewers:
  • I love the way that Judy presents very complicated material in an interesting and simple way so that we can all understand as well as be inspired to put her techniques into practice. Thank you!
  • As a presenter, Judy Russell is truly non pareil -- such organization and clarity! It's really delightful to participate in her webinars. This introduced me to an entire class of courts I had never encountered and I'm very much looking forward to utilizing what I learned for several ancestors.
  • Best this year, and there have been some great ones. Can't wait to get going in these records.
