Leonardtown Library

Computer Lab

This session will review Ancestry: Library Edition on a more detailed level and build upon the foundations discussed from the Basics program.

The first Library: Ancestry Edition session discussed a basic approach to the platform. This one (while beginners and anyone interested are still welcome!) will go through actually searching on Ancestry. Results will be examined, discussed, and analyzed. The purpose is to understand: (1) how to filter search results, (2) understanding documentation and citation, and the root source, (3) identifying the different types of sources and best practices behind searching on Ancestry.

The majority of this program will be spent on the Ancestry website, walking through, step-by-step, a search process, from a generic search to a more advanced one.

If you have enjoyed the genealogical sessions offered, and wanted to learn more about Ancestry, we look forward to seeing you!

Interested in attending more genealogy programs?

Join us at Leonardtown Library, Lexington Park Library, and online for informative presentations about using Library resources in your genealogical research and researching specific topics, including United States Census Records and how to preserve your own documents and family history!
