"Organize Your Records And Organize Your Research"
There comes a point in almost everyone’s genealogical research efforts when the lack of organization of the information we have collected is hindering our ability to make any further progress. If family historians become aware of this problem, it is usually because we discover we have spent time collecting records that we already have or we find ourselves having to go back again and again through our records to figure out what we already have and what we are still missing.
GRSNO’s March 16 speaker, Marguerite Scully, believes strongly that organization is the key to progress with genealogical research. She will describe a way to organize the family history information you already have so you can avoid “spinning your wheels” and getting nowhere. She will demonstrate how your organized information can be used to identify the records and information you are still missing and keep track of the sources you have already searched.
The talk will take place at Jefferson Parish East Bank Regional Library (Jefferson Room, 1st Floor), 4747 West Napoleon Ave., Metairie, with optional Zoom participation provided by GRSNO for members. Membership dues are $40 a year - see grsno.org.
