“YOUR SUMMER GENEALOGY HOMEWORK”
A Jewish Genealogical Society of Greater Orlando Program
with Tom Hirsch
While school may be recessed for the summer, it’s not the time to stop your genealogy work. In fact, summer travel and the break from school can be very productive for family history researchers. Join the Jewish Genealogical Society of Greater Orlando (JGSGO) on June 4 to hear a presentation by JGSGO Secretary Tom Hirsch on tips to help new and veteran genealogists learn new skills, use DNA tests and computer technology, and other tools to find and share their family history.
Tom recently retired after more than 41 years in TV news, and is sharing his experience and knowledge to help you have more success, efficiency, and enjoyment in your family genealogy adventures. He has been doing genealogy for more than 20 years, tracing his ancestral roots in Germany, Hungary, and the Czech Republic. He has helped numerous other genealogists with research, photos, and suggestions to help them solve problems. This will be his seventh presentation, since joining the JGSGO in 2010.
Before and after the meeting, you can seek advice from experienced genealogists, and you probably will find people who are researching some of the same areas that you are. Bring your laptop and your questions and join us for an evening of learning and discovery!!
