Genealogy Do-Over  (General Meetings)
1:30 pm to 3:00 pm
LDS Church – Lower Meeting Room – Juniper St, Colville
“Genealogy Do-Over” is a scary thought but, then again, maybe it’s just what we need to consider.
Norma Yost, NeWGS Librarian and presenter extraordinaire will talk to us about this edgy idea presented in Thomas McEntee’s new book Genealogy Do-Over.
Here is a short intro by Thomas McEntee describing what’s inside his book:
Here is the short summary of Genealogy Do-Over: I set aside everything* related to my genealogy research including notebooks, papers, and even digitized files and my genealogy database files and START OVER. I’m hitting the reset button. I’m allowing myself to have a do-over! (* certain items such as vital records ordered and paid for or research gathered on long-distance trips can be retained).
