==='''FamilySearch'''===

FamilySearch is an approach to organizing and recording your family history (genealogy) online. It has powerful tools for data accuracy, usability, and collaboration. It is a way to work together to do family history. FamilySearch development is ongoing and aggressive, so you can expect frequent updates, including additional training materials. FamilySearch is intended to become the most accurate representation of an ancestral line. familysearch.org

===<u>Groups and Youth Groups</u>===

Please call the center to make an appointment for your group prior to your visit.  

If your group is coming for help with FamilySearch please have them bring information on at least one of their deceased ancestors to research 

To create your FREE Color Genealogy 9 Generation Fan Chart please go to [https://treeseek.com/ treeseek.com]. You will be requested to log into you FamilySearch account so the software can gather your ancestral information from FamilySearch. This will generate a PDF document that you can save or print.  

''Note: The 9 generations printed form FamilySearch.org may not be accurate unless individuals have cleaned up and verified their ancestors as far back as 9 generations.''
