General Information
Class Reminders for the Payson FamilySearch Center
We offer a variety of classes each month taught by amazing presenters. There just might be one listed below that you’ve been waiting for. Check it out; there’s no sign-up necessary. If you cannot attend in person, join us on zoom: https://zoom.us/j/95589561172?pwd=ZHVjdC9HZ1d2QUx1TDJtZnpaY0ZkQT09.
Tuesday, April 2, 10:30 am, Jim Banner will be teaching “Make a ‘Stories of My Life’ Video.” Fortunately, Jim is one of our regular presenters. He also serves as a Temple and Family History Consultant for the Dry Creek Branch (Care Center), has 20+ years experience with family history, and has served as a FamilySearch Support Missionary for about four years. Jim knows all the ins and outs of creating a life story, how to efficiently record it, and effectively teach it. Having a life story is of great value. We are confident you will benefit from attending his class.
Thursday, April 4, 7:00 pm, Carren Crossley and Dustin Myers will be teaching “Using storied.com.” Stories are a vital part of family history. Although names, dates and locations are necessary on a family tree, stories make everything more interesting, they give us an overall picture of a person’s life, and allow us to actually know a person we may not have ever met. For these reasons and many others, you will want to join this class to learn how to use storied. It allows you to add stories and memories to the people in your family tree. It’s a place to capture snapshots of life for future generations. This is a class you won’t want to miss. Come meet these presenters and learn valuable information to make your family tree come alive!
