This month we celebrate our one-year anniversary of our first-ever webinar.
Thanks to both the terrific speakers and attendees, we've helped pioneer the
genealogy webinar industry, having brought to you 34 webinars this past year
- all free. It's been the most exciting thing I've been a part of.
We're not even slowing down - in September we have 4 webinars to choose
from. Register for one or for all of them. Register today and we'll remind
you both the day before and one hour before the live event. Here's what's
coming this month:
1) Watch Geoff Live: Adding a Census Record, presented by Legacy's Geoff
Rasmussen on Wednesday, September 7 at 9:00PM Eastern U.S. time.
In this webinar, Legacy's Geoff Rasmussen will demonstrate what to do with a
census record. You are invited to watch live as Geoff adds the information
to his real, personal Legacy family file. In this live, unscripted session,
Geoff will talk his way through adding a 1920 U.S. census record and a 1911
England census record to his family file giving you ideas on how to use
various aspects of Legacy Family Tree.

2) Facebook for Genealogists, presented by webinar-favorite Thomas MacEntee
on Wednesday, September 14 at 2:00PM Eastern U.S. time.
Afraid to make the jump into Facebook? Wondering what all the fuss is about
or how Facebook can work to the genealogist's advantage? Come along for a
journey through this exciting social media application. If you've decided to
set up a Facebook account not only to stay in touch with family but to
expand your genealogy experience, you will learn the basics of the program
including how to protect your privacy, how to make friends on Facebook, and
how to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.

3) Exploring FamilyLink.com and WorldVitalRecords.com, presented by Paul
Allen on Friday, September 16 at 2:00 PM Eastern U.S. time.
WorldVitalRecords.com recently celebrated its 5th anniversary. Founder Paul
Allen and his team of genealogy developers have been building a
"one-stop-shop" for genealogy records and family history information by
aggregating records from numerous sources. Today, WVR has nearly 5 billion
names in more than 50,000 databases from nearly 50 content partners around
the world. This webinar is for 1) those who want an overview and comparison
of these services without having to buy anything and 2) current subscribers
to WorldVitalRecords.com or FamilyLink.com who want to learn more about the
resources already at their fingertips. Of course, no purchase is necessary
to learn about these services, but if you've been considering new ways of
finding your ancestors, this webinar is for you. Paul Allen is the founder
of both FamilyLink.com and Ancestry.com, and has quickly become known as the
unofficial Google+ Statistician.
