We will watch a video of W. Todd Knowles's presentation at the 2016 IAJGS Conference, “Getting the Most Out of FamilySearch for Jewish Research.”
FamilySearch is the largest free genealogical website in the world. It contains the records of over four billion people. In this session we will learn how to make the most of FamilySearch as we search for our Jewish Ancestors.
In addition to the basic searches, we will learn some tricks to finding the records of our families, including the fast-growing collection of FamilySearch digital records. This knowledge will enable participants to continue their research at home, as always, free of charge.
The Jewish Genealogical Society of Georgia is a part of the William Breman Jewish Heritage Museum.
Membership to The Breman includes membership in the JGS of Georgia.
The Breman Museum has extensive archives about Jewish life in Georgia and Alabama here.
