====<u>FamilySearch: Duplicates (Matching and Merging)</u>====
:It might be exciting to find your great-grandmother in FamilySearch Family Tree. But what about finding her four times—each record with a little different information?
 
:Duplication can feel bewildering and frustrating. And yet finding an ancestor more than once in Family Tree is a fairly common occurrence. The reason for these duplicates (the term used when there are multiple records for the same individual) is because information in the tree comes from a variety of sources and because users can enter their own information directly into the tree. This class will teach you how to use FamilySearch features to resolve these duplications.

====<u>FamilySearch: Record Hints and Sourcing</u>====
:If you’ve poked around on your family tree on FamilySearch.org, you may have seen little blue boxes to the right of some of the names of people on your tree or in a Research Help box on the top right side of the individual screen. These blue boxes indicate there are record hints, which are shortcuts designed to help you find information about your family as painlessly as possible. FamilySearch is constantly scouring their digitized, indexed records to identify records that may match your family and these blue boxes signal to you that they might have succeeded. Linked to actual records that may include your family, these little hints can make a big difference on your family tree.

==COUNTRY SPECIFIC CLASSES==
====<u>British Research (1837-Present)</u>====
:The first effective census for researchers occurred in 1841 with the most recently released being 1911. Finding ancestors in households, with siblings and parents creates a snapshot in time, and opens up other avenues of family history research to family members.
 
:In recognizing the need for more accurate record keeping, the government began Civil Registration on July 1, 1837. The records of births, marriages and deaths in England and Wales are available to everyone and a valuable resource for that time period.

====<u>England & Wales – Records of the Church and Their Poor (Pre-1837)</u>====
:(Beginner/Intermediate)
:The Church of England and Wales, as the governing body for centuries, not only recorded parishioners’ life events but managed their affairs. They maintained the roads, paid the bell ringer and supplied spiritual guidance. One of their most enduring works was to serve the poor. Apprenticeship records, bastardy bonds and settlement/removal papers aid in identifying family lines accurately.

====<u>Geneanet - A FamilySearch Partner Europe Research Site</u>====
:Did you know that FamilySearch has a new partner, Geneanet?

Hidden in the thousands of books and newspapers digitized byGeneanet might be just the clue you need.
 
:Geneanet is a Europe-based genealogy research service headquartered in France. Launched in 1996 specifically to help family historians search for and share relevant information, the website has had over a decade to accumulate submitted data and add that to its small but formidable archive of records. The active Geneanet member has shared over 400 million individual names with familial connections through their created family trees; this activity is, of course, bolstered by Geneanet’s hundreds of thousands of digitized historical records, registers, books and photos. Though some records and search options are marked for premium-only access, it’s worth noting that it’s entirely possible to maintain a useful Geneanet member account for free, forever.

====<u>Writing Your Family History</u>====
<!-- Class Links -->
:Learn the most important elements of writing and make your ancestors come alive on paper. Make your family legacy something your children will remember. Do your children know their heritage? What are your traditions? Each of us has a story from our ancestors or even our own story to tell. Your children need to know their grandparents. It's up to us to write these experiences down.
